Ingredients You’ll Need

(Don’t worry — you probably have most of this already!)

• ¾ cup cold brew or chilled strong coffee
• ½ cup milk (any kind — oat milk is amazing here)
• 1 medium banana (frozen is best for texture)
• 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1–2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
• 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey (optional)
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ cup ice cubes

Optional Add-ins:

• 1 scoop protein powder
• A pinch of cinnamon
• A few coffee ice cubes instead of regular

Step 1: Blend Everything Together

Toss all your ingredients into a high-speed blender and blend until completely smooth and creamy. If it’s too thick, just add a splash more coffee or milk.

Step 2: Taste and Adjust

Want it more chocolatey? Add another teaspoon of cocoa.

Need it sweeter? A drizzle of syrup will do it.

Too thin? A few extra ice cubes or a second banana chunk thickens it right up.

Step 3: Serve and Enjoy

Pour into your favorite glass or travel cup. Add a straw (reusable if you’re feelin’ eco), and enjoy! You can sprinkle a bit of cocoa or cinnamon on top for extra cozy vibes.

Tips & Swaps

• Swap peanut butter for almond butter or sunflower butter if needed
• Use decaf cold brew if you’re avoiding caffeine
• Add oats to turn this into a meal smoothie
• For a more frappuccino-style texture, blend in extra ice or coffee cubes
  Optional Topping: Whipped Cream & Drizzle
  If you’re feeling fancy (or just want it to look cute on Pinterest), top your smoothie with a swirl of whipped cream. You can also sprinkle some cocoa powder or do a tiny drizzle of peanut butter on top. It’s totally optional—but definitely worth it.
