THEY are one of the most popular coffee shop drinks when the weather heats up.
But a frappé is also one of the most expensive options, and can cost you around £5 in stores like Costa and Starbucks.
So Aldi is sure to enjoy huge success with one of their latest offerings, which means you can make a frappe at home for just 16p.
Not only that, but it's in the flavour of the season - pistachio.
One savvy shopper to share news of the exciting new product, which they'd spotted in their local store.

All you need to do is to pour the powder into a glass, add cold milk of your choice, give it a stir and you're "good to go".

She added: "It’s not something I would drink so regularly that the sugar would put me off, personally."
