Quick take

Blend cooled Urban Calm mushroom coffee with frozen banana, milk and nut butter for an easy coffee-banana breakfast smoothie.

Use Onward for a lighter smoothie or Lioness when you want the coffee flavour to be much stronger.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup cooled Urban Calm mushroom coffee
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1/2 cup milk or unsweetened plant milk
  • 1 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • Optional: plain Greek yogurt or your usual protein powder
  • Ice as needed

How to make it

  1. Add everything to a blender.
  2. Blend until completely smooth.
  3. Add a splash more milk if it is too thick.
  4. Taste before adding any sweetener. The banana may be enough.
Lioness is the better choice if you want the coffee flavour to stay obvious beside banana and nut butter.

Make it chocolate

Add 1 teaspoon of unsweetened cocoa powder. For a sweeter version, add a small amount of maple syrup.

Make it less sweet

Use half a frozen banana and add more ice. You can also skip vanilla.

Choose the coffee by roast: Onward for lighter flavour, Lioness for the strongest coffee presence.

This is breakfast, not a performance formula

The smoothie is simply a convenient way to combine coffee with food. We do not frame it as a special pre-workout or recovery drink.
