Greek Frappe 101 — and the Glass That Makes It Feel Like “Back Home”
In the world of coffee, few drinks feel as nostalgic as a Greek frappe — that foamy, iced classic you sip slowly while the ice clinks in the glass and the day stretches out in front of you. And if you know frappe, you know the glass matters.
That’s where the Original Wave Frappe Glass comes in.
In 2019, I was the first to launch the Greek-themed Original Wave Frappe Glass — taking the wave-style shape and pairing it with Greek designs our community instantly connected with, like the Greek flag and mati (evil eye). It wasn’t about following a trend. It was about creating a glass that felt truly Greek.
What Is a Greek Frappe?
A Greek frappe is a light, frothy iced coffee made by shaking instant coffee, water, and sugar until it forms a thick foam, then pouring it over ice (and adding milk if you like). It’s refreshing, strong, and perfect for summer — or any time you need that afternoon pick-me-up.
Why the Wave Frappe Glass?
The wave shape isn’t just for looks. It changes how the drink feels in your hand and how it looks when it’s served.
-
Comfortable grip: the bent shape sits naturally in your hand
-
Made for iced coffee: it suits cold drinks and slow sipping
-
Looks like a proper frappe: you can see the foam, coffee swirl, and ice layers beautifully
It’s simple, but once you drink frappe from the wave glass, it just feels right.
The “Original” Matters
You’ll see wave-style glasses around now — that’s what happens when something becomes popular. But if you want the Original Wave Frappe Glass that started the Greek-themed wave in 2019, with the designs and story behind it, you’re in the right place.
More Than a Glass
For many of us, frappe isn’t just coffee — it’s a ritual. This glass brings a little piece of that Greek coffee culture into everyday life, whether you’re having one at home, serving friends, or setting up a summer table.
And if you’re gifting? Our gift boxes make it easy to give someone a Greek coffee moment they’ll actually use — not just something that sits on a shelf.
