Instructions
Coffee ice cubes (optional)
NOTE: This is optional. You can always use normal ice cubes, but if you want extra strong coffee flavor, then make coffee ice cubes. Mix the espresso instant powder with the hot water and let chill for 20 minutes until cool.
Measure out ⅔ cup of coffee into a mason jar or container and place it in the fridge. Put the rest of the coffee mix into one ice tray and place in the freezer for two hours or until it’s frozen.
Transfer the rest of the coffee mix into an airtight container and place it in the fridge to chill.
Coffee protein shake
Add your chilled espresso mix, almond milk, and protein powder to your blender. Blend for about 5-10 seconds or until the protein powder has been incorporated fully.
Add the rest of the ingredients into the blender and blend until all the ingredients including the ice cubes are fully mixed.
