Instructions

Add the cold brew coffee, banana, caramel sauce, fine sea salt, and vanilla extract to a high-speed blender.
Add the ice cubes.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds until completely smooth.
Check the consistency. Blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional coffee if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

For extra creaminess, use a ripe banana and make sure the ice is well blended. Prepare cold brew coffee in advance for faster preparation.
