EnergyBoost Coffee Smoothie

30 Jan

(I’ll post a picture for this later!) 

Important to note: I usually do this the night before I’m going to make it for the morning, as the coffee beans need to soak before blended and the flavors needs to marry each other in a happy harmony of deliciousness. 

What you’ll need:

(Most importantly, a REALLY good blender)

1 banana

1/3 cup roasted, ORGANIC & FAIR-TRADE coffee beans 

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon ground gloves

1/2 cup milk (hemp, soy, almond, etc.)

3 big ol ice cubes

1/3 cup water

Optional Ingredients

1 tablespoon raw cacao (optional)

1 tablespoon raw maca powder (optional)

.5 tablespoon “butter” (peanut, cashew, almond, sunflower, etc.)

Method

Combine water and milk together with all other dry ingredients (don’t mix in the banana or ice until you blend it) and let sit overnight, covered. When you’re ready to drink it, throw it in the blender WITH the banana & ice and blend until smooth. Voila! Nourishing, flavorful, perfect “chai”like spiced coffee fit for the god(dess)s. Let me know how this works out for you!
