Notes
- I like to use cold brew coffee because it has a smoother, less acidic flavor profile than traditional iced coffee. You can make homemade cold brew or buy cold brew coffee or cold brew concentrate at the grocery store.
- homemade cold brew
- cold brew coffee
- cold brew concentrate
- You can freeze any leftover coffee you have in an ice cube tray and then add the coffee ice cubes to the smoothie instead of regular ice cubes. This will add more coffee flavor without diluting the smoothie. I do this if I brew a pot of coffee and don't finish it.
- ice cube tray
- I typically use vanilla protein powder in this shake but if you prefer a mocha flavor, try using chocolate protein powder.
- vanilla protein powder
- chocolate protein powder
- Adding a frozen banana to this coffee protein smoothie makes it cold and creamy. If you have extra bananas, peel them and store them in the freezer to use in smoothies.
- If you like a thicker smoothie, add a handful of ice cubes to the blender.
