Easy Collagen Coffee Recipe (Healthy Coffee Smoothie)
Description
The Easy Collagen Coffee Recipe combines brewed coffee that is cooled to warm or room temperature with unsweetened cocoa powder and collagen powder. Almond milk adds creaminess while dates provide natural sweetness. The ingredients are blended together on high speed until frothy and smooth, ensuring any date pieces are fully integrated.
The drink balances the rich earthiness of coffee and cocoa with the gentle sweetness of dates, resulting in a smooth coffee smoothie with added protein from collagen. Serving immediately preserves the frothy texture and fresh flavor.
Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to two days and stirred well before drinking. The recipe is flexible in coffee type, with freshly brewed or cold brew working equally well. Unflavored collagen peptides are used here to not interfere with the coffee flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 cup coffee freshly brewed and a bit cooled at room temperature (219 ml) or cold brew.
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder unsweetened (5 grams, organic, or cacao powder
- 2 tablespoons collagen powder 0.35 ounces or 10 grams
- ½ cup almond milk 120 grams, or milk of your choice
- 1 date or 2 if you prefer a naturally sweeter taste, pitted
Instructions
- If using freshly brewed coffee instead of a cold brew, pour the hot coffee into a cup, releasing any hot steam. Let it sit until its temperature has come down and it's no longer super hot, just warm or luke warm.
- Place all ingredients in a high-speed blender.
- Blend everything until frothy and smooth. Make sure any dates are completely pulverized and integrated into the drink.
- Enjoy immediately!
Notes
- Store any leftover smoothie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days and stir before serving.
- Use either freshly brewed coffee cooled to warm or cold brew coffee as the base.
- Unflavored collagen peptides work best to keep the coffee flavor clean.
