Serves 2

Ingredients

Ice cubes
1 cup
Honey
1-2 tablespoons (adjust to taste)
Almond milk
1 cup
Banana
1, frozen
Cold brew coffee
1 cup
Papaya
1 cup, diced (about 1 small papaya)
Chia seeds
1 tablespoon (optional, for added texture and nutrition)

Instructions

  1. Begin by preparing your ingredients: peel, seed, and dice the papaya into small chunks, and freeze a ripe banana overnight for a creamier texture.
  2. In a blender, combine the diced papaya, cold brew coffee, frozen banana, almond milk, honey, ice cubes, and chia seeds (if using).
  3. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.
  4. Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if desired.
  5. Pour the smoothie into chilled glasses and serve immediately, garnished with a slice of papaya or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top for an extra tropical touch.

Tips

  • 💡 For an extra boost of flavor, consider adding a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon.
  • 💡 You can substitute almond milk with coconut milk for a richer, more tropical flavor.
  • 💡 If you prefer a thicker consistency, add more frozen banana or papaya.
