Why? The banana naturally sweetens and complements the chocolate-y notes of our coffee and creates a frothy, delicious drink that is perfect any day of the year.

What's better than a coffee banana smoothie combined together to fuel your day with the caffeine dose you need. In fact, regular coffee drinks can get kind of boring if you drink the same beverage every single day for a while.

Sweet banana with punchy rich coffee, I can't think of anything better? This recipe makes two servings.

The Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of milk (we used full fat milk for maximum flavour but you can use any alternative or variation)
  • 1 very ripe banana (the trick here is to freeze the banana as soon as the dark spots start emerging on the peel).
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 double shot of espresso using speciality coffee beans. You can also use a cold brew coffee if preferred. We used the seasonal Stability blend to make our recipe. head here to see what coffees we have in stock now)
  • 2 cups of ice cubes (optional - if you use a frozen banana, then the ice isn't necessary)

Banana Coffee: The Method

  1. Combine the milk, banana, and honey in a blender and blend until very smooth (approx. 1 minute).
  2. Fill two glasses with ice cubes. Divide the cold brew between the glasses. Pour the banana milk on top, dividing it evenly between the glasses.
