Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup strong brewed coffee (chilled, or cold brew)
- 1 cup milk
- 2 frozen bananas
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the chilled strong brewed coffee, milk, frozen bananas, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the blender in the order listed to ensure even blending.
- Blend Smoothly: Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and evenly combined, typically about 30-60 seconds.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses immediately and enjoy it cold for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can use cold brew coffee for a smoother coffee flavor with less acidity.
- Adjust the sweetness by changing the amount of maple syrup according to taste.
- For a creamier texture, use whole milk or substitute with almond, oat, or soy milk for a dairy-free option.
- The frozen bananas add natural sweetness and thickness; fresh bananas can be used but the texture will be thinner.
- Add ice cubes if you prefer a colder smoothie.
