Cinnamon & Hemp Seed Coffee Shake
Ingredients
- 1 cup of cooled coffee (regular or decaf)
- ¼ cup of almond/non-dairy milk
- a few pinches of cinnamon
- 2 Tablespoons of hemp seeds
- splash of vanilla extract
- 1 ½ frozen bananas, sliced into coins
- handful of ice
- sweetener if needed
Instructions
- Chill some leftover coffee in an airtight container for a few hours (or overnight) before making this smoothie, or be prepared to use a little extra ice.
- Place the non-dairy milk, cinnamon, vanilla and hemp seeds into a blender and mix until a milky consistency forms. Add in the coffee and sliced bananas and continue mixing until smooth.
- Add in the ice last, and blend on high until there are no chunks remaining. Taste for sweetness and add your favorite plant-based sweetener or sugar alternative. Pour into a glass and enjoy with a straw!
