We usually tend to lean hard into the cozy vibes this time of year. Warm blankets, fireside evenings, steaming mugs of cocoa… but we thought we’d mix things up!
Icy frappes, slushy boba shakes, and nostalgic ice cream cocktails are all great at putting the “frozen” in Frozen Tundra, and honestly? We’re ready to embrace the chill. If you’re with us, keep reading for your wintery round-up of Green Bay’s best frozen drinks!
Frappes & Blended Drinks
For those who believe coffee tastes best smooth, cold, and topped with a mountain of whipped cream, Green Bay has you covered. You’re going to love trying flavors throughout the city like the Cotton Headed Ninnymuggins (that’s green mint and cookies & cream) at Wisco Sips, the Eggnog Frappe at The Frappe Spot, the Tres Leches Pumpkin Spice at Meche’s Churros & Cafe, and Mocha Madness at Daily Buzz… just to name a few.
Try these local favorites for all your frappe and blended drink needs:
Boba Shakes and Chè
If you want your frozen drink with a little bit of extra flair, go for a frozen boba shake! It’s all the yumminess of bubble tea in frozen drink form. Or try a vibrant chè, a Vietnamese dessert drink that is just as delicious as it is Instagrammable.

Ice Cream Cocktails

What is an ice cream cocktail? It’s dairy. It’s booze. It’s a Wisconsin tradition.
Often found on supper club menus, these nostalgic alcoholic milkshakes range from classics like the minty Grasshopper, the creamy Golden Cadillac, the sophisticated Brandy Alexander, and the perfectly pink Pink Squirrel, to newer favorites such as Raspberries and Cream or Key Lime Pie. It’s not a true supper club experience unless you end the evening with one (or more) of these blended faves!
