Panera's Frozen Caramel drink is made from a mix and not from fresh espresso! The secret ingredient, called Mediterranean Blend Frozen Cappuccino Mix, from Distant Lands Coffee Roaster, can be purchased here.

$28.95 per gallon plus shipping
1 gallon makes (64) 16 oz. drinks

One gallon of the Mediterranean Blend Frozen Cappuccino Mix can make (64) 16 oz. Frozen Caramels! That works out to just $0.45 per drink. Even after you factor in the other ingredients ($0.44 for 7 oz. of half and half and $0.25 for 3 tbsps of caramel syrup), the total cost for a 16 oz. drink is just $1.14! A 16 oz. Grande Frozen Caramel from Panera Bread costs $3.59! That's more than 3 times the cost for the same exact drink using the same ingredients!
