Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Coffee Smoothie

5.8K

What would you say to a Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Coffee Smoothie? Sounds good, right? My husband told me I was crazy, but it’s only because he’s a hot coffee drinker 99.9% of the time. He can drink hot coffee in the afternoon when it’s 100 degrees outside. I don’t’ know how he does it, but I am thankful for his love for hot coffee in the mornings, lol.

If there is one thing I love each morning, it’s waking up to the smell of my husband brewing coffee. It’s a scent that I’ve woken up to my whole life even before I started drinking coffee. I love hot coffee every morning if it’s cold outside, but during the summer it’s hit and miss.  However, when the hot summer afternoon rolls around there isn’t anything like a tasty iced coffee.  And thanks to the NEW Caribou Premium Iced Coffee we can have our coffee and drink it cold without all the extra work.  Just grab it and go, how sweet is that?  It does get better, if you haven’t tried the NEW Caribou Premium Iced Coffee yet you’ll understand once you do.  It’s AWESOME right out of the bottle while you are flying out the door or pretty delish in this Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Coffee Smoothie recipe.

I could just hug the person who decided to try iced coffee that’s easy when you are on the go but also good enough to make something like the protein coffee smoothie lol.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Coffee Smoothie

To make the coffee protein smoothie you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 1 bottle (14 ounces) Caribou Chocolate Mocha Iced Coffee
• 3 – 4 Tablespoons creamy peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoon chia seeds
• 1 cup of ice
• ½ frozen banana (optional)
• 1 scoop chocolate protein powder

Making the coffee protein smoothie is super easy, check it out:

• Combine all the above ingredients in your blender on medium to low until everything is combined.

Tip: I like my smoothies with a lot of ice, so I always add more. If you want a thicker smoothie just add more ice or even better the night before you can pour a bottle of Caribou Chocolate Mocha Iced Coffee into an ice tray and let the coffee freeze. When you get ready to combine everything you’ll still put ice, but I would only put the ½ cup at most. If you need more, you can add slowly.

NEW Caribou Premium Iced Coffee

The NEW Caribou Premium Iced Coffee is now available in grocery stores nationwide just in time for the iced coffee season!  It’s available in three flavors – Chocolate Mocha, Sea Salt Caramel (my favorite to grab and go) and Vanilla – and made with authentic Caribou Coffee and premium ingredients – like real chocolate and caramel – and reduced fat milk, it’s the perfect coffeehouse treat that’s ready to drink when you’re on the go this summer!

All three flavors of Caribou Premium Iced Coffee are amazing but I must admit the Sea Salt Caramel is my personal favorite to grab straight out of the fridge.  It’s so nice because I can grab it on the way out the door or take it back to my office while I get some work done.

Not only does Caribou Iced Coffee drinks make a pretty awesome Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Coffee Smoothie they are PERFECT for all the on the go moments we have, especially during the summer months.  It’s nice because I can still have my afternoon cup of coffee, in a convenient 14-ounce bottle that is perfect wherever I decide to go.

I can have my afternoon coffee and stay cool too; it’s a win-win! I’m definitely more of an iced coffee gal in the summer.
