frap roast
Powdered coffee base used only in Frappuccinos.
Definitions
Starbucks-specific. A concentrated instant-style coffee powder dissolved in water to form the coffee base of a Coffee Frappuccino — used instead of brewed coffee or espresso because espresso would melt the ice and wreck the texture. Customers asking for 'extra coffee' in a Frap usually mean an extra pump of this.
