🛒 Ingredients (1 Serving)
- 1 scoop Organic Innovation Grass-Fed Whey Protein Isolate (vanilla works best)
- 1 cup cold brew coffee (unsweetened)

- 1 tsp raw cacao powder (optional, for a mocha flavor)
- 1 tsp natural sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or stevia) – optional
- A handful of ice cubes
👩🍳 Preparation Instructions
1. Prepare Your Cold Brew
o If making from scratch, steep coarsely ground coffee beans in cold water for 12–24 hours, then strain. Or simply use pre-made cold brew from your local store.
2. Add to Blender
o Pour 1 cup of cold brew coffee into a high-speed blender.
o Add ½ cup almond milk, the scoop of grass-fed whey protein isolate, and ice cubes.
3. Optional Add-Ins
o Add 1 tsp raw cacao powder for a mocha twist.
o Sweeten to taste with honey, maple syrup, or stevia if you prefer a sweeter shake.
4. Blend Until Smooth
o Blend on high speed for 30–45 seconds, or until the texture is creamy and frothy.
5. Serve & Enjoy
o Pour into a tall glass, add a straw, and sip your refreshing, protein-packed iced coffee shake.
💡 Pro Tips
- For extra creaminess, add ½ a frozen banana.
- For a richer texture, swap almond milk for oat milk.
- Turn it into a meal replacement by adding 1 tbsp almond butter or a scoop of oats.
