Ingredients
  

For the smoothie
  • 1 cup brewed coffee, cooled Provides the rich coffee flavor that kick-starts your day.
  • 1 banana Adds natural sweetness and a creamy texture; ripe bananas enhance the smoothie’s flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt A protein-packed base that thickens the smoothie while adding probiotics.
  • 1 tablespoon honey Offers extra sweetness; feel free to adjust depending on your preference.
  • 1/2 cup almond milk Keeps the smoothie light and adds a nutty flavor; can substitute dairy milk or oat milk.
  • Ice cubes (optional) Use for a chilled, refreshing beverage; especially nice during warmer months.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In your blender, add the cooled brewed coffee, banana, Greek yogurt, honey, and almond milk together.
  2. Turn on the blender and process until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This usually takes about 30 seconds, depending on the power of your blender.
  3. If you prefer a thicker smoothie, add more Greek yogurt. For a thinner texture, increase the almond milk to your liking.
  4. If you want a colder drink, toss in a handful of ice cubes and blend again until everything is well combined.
  5. Once the smooth texture is achieved, pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately for the freshest taste.

Notes

For added nutrition, throw in a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds for an omega-3 boost. If you enjoy a nutty flavor, try adding a scoop of your favorite nut butter. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, or freeze for up to three months.
