- If you like a thicker smoothie, add a few ice cubes to the blender.

Notes
- You can also use cold brew coffee for a stronger flavor. The coffee should be cooled to prevent the protein powder from clumping due to heat.
- A frozen banana will give the smoothie a creamy, thick texture and a cold temperature without the need for additional ice, which can dilute the flavor.
