Can I use hot coffee?

Nope—let it cool first so it doesn’t melt the ice or curdle the milk.

Is this smoothie good for weight loss?

It can be! Just watch portions and sweeteners. Add protein for satiety.

Can I make this ahead?

It’s best fresh, but you can blend it and refrigerate up to 24 hours—just stir before drinking.

Is there a decaf version?

Yes, swap in decaf coffee so you still get the flavor without the buzz.

How do I make it thicker?

Use a frozen banana or less liquid. You can also add ice or oats.
