Easy coffee smoothie Recipe
Hey lovelies, today I am showing you how to make the best coffee smoothie that is perfect for any time of the day just like this iced coffee. I prefer drinking it in the morning for breakfast, it is a good pick me up to face the day ahead. I like to add coffee ice cubes to my coffee smoothie as it gives the smoothie a better texture and taste as opposed to using cold coffee. With coffee cubes, you enjoy the taste of fresh coffee to the last sip, no one wants to be sipping down on a watered-down or glorified iced smoothie. Making ice cubes is extremely easy and it can be made with fresh or instant coffee. I mostly freeze some of my cold brew for this but I have been known to use instant coffee too. If you know what you are doing with coffee then you know you can make some great tasting coffee with instant coffee granules. This instant iced coffee is a testament to that, it has over 600k views, 18k likes and great feedback to prove it. Related Post: How to make chai masala powder
