Tall Frappuccinos from Starbucks were our first "big girl" coffee orders (other than a sip of our parent's cup of java every once in a while). Just thinking about those first sips of blended coffee makes us nostalgic for the discontinued Frappuccinos of summers' past. So, we made a comprehensive list of every single flavor offered to date. (Or at least all the ones we could find.) Yes, really. Over 50 blended drinks later, we can't help but daydream about the possibilities the next limited-time only Frapps.

Ahead, find Frappuccino flavors spanning over the course of the past 20 years. Let us know in the comments if you remember any that we missed!
