Notes
Want more coffee flavor? You can use cold brew coffee instead of milk. You could even add an espresso shot for a real morning kick.
Make it sweeter! Use vanilla almond milk and add a tablespoon of maple syrup!
Add to the blender in an order so that the powdered ingredients are away from the blender blade. I’ve found that protein powder directly against the blade can sometimes cause a burnt taste.
Freeze any leftover coffee you have from your morning pot in an ice cube tray and throw those into this smoothie, too.
