Espresso is going to be less liquid and stronger per ounce then straight coffee– iced coffee is just what is sounds like; iced coffee. A frappachino is a cold blended drink. lattes and cappuccinos are going to have a milk base with espresso. cappuccinos are going to have more foam then a latte. So there you have a very basic layout of the differences.

Here’s an article that explains them perfectly.
The main difference is espresso is a strong coffee brewed with pressure in a short time, <30 seconds.
All the other drinks are made with espresso as a base & varying amounts of steamed & frothed milk.
Frappuccino is a Starbucks drink that is basically an iced cappuccino (Frappe = coffee base milk shake + cappuccino)
They can all be made from any (and the same) coffee beans. A variety of beans can be used for the same drink to create different flavors.

Hello,
They are differently brewed and also different ingredients are added to them.
Also, different beans are used as well, so the taste is not the same
