Ingredients

Liquid Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup strong coffee or cold brew
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Protein and Fruit

  • 1/4 cup plain or vanilla protein powder
  • 1 large frozen banana

Nut Butter

  • 2 tablespoons creamy almond butter

Instructions

  1. Add Ingredients: Add the coffee, almond milk, protein powder, frozen banana, almond butter, and vanilla extract to a high powered blender.
  2. Blend Smooth: Blend all ingredients until smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.

Notes

  • Use cold brew coffee or chilled strong coffee to keep the smoothie cold without adding ice that can dilute flavor.
  • Frozen banana helps create a creamy texture and chills the smoothie.
  • Almond butter can be substituted with peanut butter or any other nut butter.
  • Adjust protein powder flavor to your preference; vanilla adds sweetness while plain keeps it neutral.
  • If you prefer sweeter smoothies, add a bit of honey or maple syrup.
