Ingredients
- ½ cup brewed coffee , cooled
- ½ cup almond milk (or any milk)
- 3 Medjool dates , pitted (see notes)
- 1 tablespoon hemp hearts
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- 1 cup Ice cubes , or more as needed
Instructions
- In a high-speed blender, combine the coffee, milk, pitted dates, hemp hearts, and almond butter. Blend until very smooth. Taste the mixture, and add an extra date if you'd like it to be sweeter.
- Add the ice cubes and blend again, until the smoothie has a slushy texture. Serve right away for the best consistency. Tip: For extra coffee flavor, pour leftover coffee into an ice cube tray and freeze overnight. Then use the frozen coffee cubes instead of regular ice cubes to boost the coffee taste.

Notes
- Nutrition information is for the whole batch. This is just an estimate and not a guarantee.
- Note: This recipe works best with soft, squishy dates that should easily split apart with your fingers. If you can only find dry ones from a bulk bin, I recommend soaking them in hot water for 10- 15 minutes before blending.
- You can replace the dates with 1 frozen banana + 1 tablespoon of maple syrup for a similar sweetness level, but with a hint of banana flavor. In that case, you might not need as much ice.
- Update Note: This recipe was updated in February 2024 to include an extra 1/2 cup of milk, which makes it creamier. If you prefer the original recipe, omit the milk.
