As an alternative to the many sweet frappuccino beverages that can be found at most cafes, Bardot Bars and Coffee offers a secret menu item—the Hot Cheetos Frappe—that offers a spicy, savory flavor.
Just as its name suggests, the Hot Cheetos Frappe is made with a vanilla-based frappuccino that is topped with sea salt heavy cream and a sprinkling of spicy, crumbled cheesy snack puffs.
Since the snack is a spicy one, Bardot Bars and Coffee plays this up by offering mild, medium and a hot variety made with the XXtra Flamin' Hot Cheetos. For those who prefer a refreshingly chilled treat that still offers a spicy kick, Bardot Bars and Coffee also offers a soft serve that comes topped with the red Hot Cheetos.
