Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup brewed coffee (cooled)
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Brew the Coffee – Start by brewing your coffee as you prefer—whether it’s drip, espresso, or cold brew—then allow it to cool slightly to avoid watering down the smoothie when blended with ice.
  2. Step 2: Prep the Ingredients – Peel a ripe banana, measure out your yogurt and milk, and gather any optional sweeteners or add-ins you want to include.
  3. Step 3: Blend Everything Together – In a blender, combine the brewed coffee, banana, Greek yogurt, milk, honey (if using), and a handful of ice cubes. Blend on high until smooth and creamy with no lumps.
  4. Step 4: Taste and Adjust – Give your Coffee Smoothie a quick taste test and add more sweetener or milk as needed to reach your desired flavor and texture.
  5. Step 5: Serve Immediately – Pour your smoothie into a glass, add any garnishes you like, and enjoy right away for the best flavor and freshness.

Notes

  • Use cold coffee to keep the smoothie thick and refreshing without adding too much ice.
  • Freeze your banana slices beforehand for an even creamier texture.
  • Blend long enough to fully combine all ingredients for a smooth mouthfeel.
  • Add sweeteners gradually and taste as you go to avoid oversweetening.
  • Experiment with different milk types like almond, oat, or coconut for varied flavor and texture.
