Creamy Cold Brew Coffee Smoothie

I used refrigerated coconut milk for my cubes and a little honey and a little agave. It was delicious 😋

Loooved this. It’s amazing how strong the coffee taste comes through for only half a cup.

Freezing coconut milk into cubes…GENIUS!!

This smoothie is unbelievable! It reminds me so much of the indulgence of Vietnamese coconut coffee but fortunately with WAY less fat and sugar than an authentic version. I have been making this for a couple of years and following the recipe exactly is very good.

I am pregnant now and looking for ways to add more calcium (for bone health) and dates (to prep for labor) to my diet, so I altered the recipe a bit to suit those needs and it tastes about the same: I do 6 dates in place of the maple syrup, and instead of cold brew I mix decaf instant coffee powder with milk. These substitutions are totally not needed because the flavor is great either way, but it just goes to show how customizable the recipe is!

I have been making these smoothies for some time now, and always have a couple bananas, too ripe to eat that get cut up and put in the freezer. Well, I grabbed a bag that I thought was cut up frozen bananas and threw more in. Turns out, it was ginger that I keep in the freezer. The smoothie had a little zing at first until I realized it was a cold brew coconut banana and ginger smoothie. Not bad, actually great!

Thank you so much for this recipe. So easy and refreshing. It will be in my summer rotation for sure. I have been a big fan of yours for years now.

Awesome!

Made a maple syrup-free variation of this using a whole banana for one serving and adding oats for a more solid breakfast. I eyeballed the quantities and it turned out a bit liquidy but delicious! Love the idea of freezing coconut milk to use in smoothies, I will be doing that more :) Thank you for the recipe!!

Just made this! Delicious!!

Hello! I thoroughly enjoyed this. I did have to add a bit more of everything and loosen it up with Almond milk. But, this was a genius smoothie and one that I’ll definitely make again. Thank you! 😊

LOVE this! I am not a smoothie person at all but this really called to me. I’m a big coffee drinker so I used my cold brew concentrate and love how effectively caffeinated I feel after drinking this. Perfect for summer mornings – thank you!

I loved this! I don’t drink coffee so I used Pero. It still had great flavor and worked perfectly! I was worried about the banana being overpowering, so I used half of a banana instead of the whole banana. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

Ok, I am the worst at making smoothies when it comes to texture–which like should be easy? haha This recipe worked great though! Only thing is next time i think I would want to add a bit more of the cold brew since I’m a crazy coffee person but otherwise it was a great change up for a morning treat!

Just tried this out and loved it. Used decaf cool brew and froze coconut milk in a mini muffin tray. I ended up adding a little bit extra cacao powder.

This is an amazing morning treat! I substituted honey instead of maple syrup. Seriously delicious!

Seriously yummy! I only had homemade cashew milk, but it worked great! I’m sure the coconut would be a bit more creamy but I’m totally satisfied. Thanks for this awesome recipe!

Just made this and it is SO good. I added collagen powder, maca, and mushroom extract. Definitely a new fave 😋

Another success from your blog. Thank you! I just made it this morning& my partner & I both loved it. I’ll be making more coconut milk ice cubes to make this again tomorrow. It’s such a treat & so easy! Thanks again!!

In case anyone is looking for another cold brew method, we make cold brew using our French press (preparing it the night before & pressing it to “filter” out the grounds in the morning). Super easy.

I was not a fan of this maybe because I subbed cacao powder for cocoa powder and because I am a coffee purist so do not usually add a lot of flavouring and have my coffee black or with oat milk. I do like the idea of freezing the milk as ice cubes so will do that when I make myself iced lattes. Thanks for the tip.

Pretty good! I let my coffee brew for 16 hours before I made this and I felt it was too weak. I’m going to do at least 48 next time and it will hopefully cover the banana flavor even though it was subtle. I doubled this recipe with cows milk, had one medium banana and had only 1 tsp of syrup and it plenty sweet for my taste. I’m going to keep trying to modify this to get it perfect but coffee is definitely one of those things that people like a certain way so if you make this just and don’t love it, just keep tweekin it!

Wow! I’m not the biggest coffee drinker, and if i do drink it’s cold brew but this is great. Thanks for all your great scratch that AWESOME Recipes! I wish there was a way to donate….maybe you’ll add that feature.

This is so good! I’ve been freezing oat milk for cold brew smoothies but adding in a ‘nana and cacao just kicks it up a notch – thanks :)

PSA – I froze some cold brew to add to my normal fruit smoothies and while they freeze just ok, there’s some kind of weird sticky thing that happens + they come out pretty weak. Everyone, don’t do that. Stick with freezing the milk instead.

This recipe was so delicious, simple and healthy! I love it!

We’re on Keto so I subbed the banana for avocado and the maple for a few drops of stevia. Delish!!!!

BEST drink in the world. How do I know? I keep my freezer stocked with this stuff including frozen coffee cubes so I know it can be started with either coconut milk or coffee whatever’s available. Sooooo good and creamy and makes you feel so spoiled plus, whenever possible cinnamon because mainly well, cinnamon. :-)
