Perfectly blended for a smooth texture and topped with shredded coconut for an optional extra touch of indulgence, this smoothie is an energizing and delicious way to start your day or enjoy as a midday treat.


Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup brewed coffee, chilled
  • 3/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1 ripe banana, frozen
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Topping

  • Shredded coconut for topping (optional)


Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients: Gather all ingredients including brewed coffee that has been chilled, coconut milk, frozen ripe banana, any sweetener of choice, vanilla extract if using, and ice cubes.
  2. Blend smoothie: Add brewed coffee, coconut milk, frozen banana, sweetener, vanilla extract, and ice cubes into a blender and blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides if necessary to ensure an even consistency.
  3. Adjust flavors: Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness or thickness by adding more honey/maple syrup, coconut milk, or ice cubes to reach your preferred flavor and texture.
  4. Pour into serving glass: Transfer the smoothie into a tall glass or jar for serving.
  5. Add toppings: Optionally, top the smoothie with shredded coconut or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor and texture.
  6. Serve immediately: Enjoy the smoothie right away with a straw for best taste and freshness.

Notes

  • Using frozen banana helps achieve a creamy, chilled texture without watering down the smoothie.
  • You can substitute coconut milk with any other plant-based milk if desired, but it may alter the flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness according to personal preference or dietary needs; the smoothie is naturally sweetened by the banana.
  • This smoothie is best consumed immediately to enjoy its optimal texture and flavor.
  • For an iced coffee flavor without caffeine, use decaffeinated brewed coffee.
