Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240 ml) cold brew coffee
- 1 scoop (about 30 grams) vanilla protein powder
- 1 cup (240 ml) unsweetened oat milk
- 1/4 cup (60 grams) plain or vanilla Greek yogurt (optional but recommended)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 4–5 ice cubes
- Optional: 1 teaspoon chia seeds or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Measure out 1 cup cold brew coffee, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder, 1 cup oat milk, 1/4 cup Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and ice cubes.
- Place all ingredients into the blender pitcher, adding ice cubes last to avoid splashing.
- Blend on high for 45 seconds to 1 minute until smooth and creamy. Adjust thickness by adding more oat milk or ice cubes as needed.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or cinnamon if desired.
- Pour into a glass or travel cup and serve immediately. Stir before drinking if taking on the go.
Notes
Use cold brew coffee for best texture and flavor. Blend liquids and yogurt first if using a less powerful blender to avoid clumps. Drink within 30 minutes for freshest taste. For dairy-free, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt and use almond or soy milk instead of oat milk. Adjust sweetness with maple syrup or omit for low sugar.
