Instructions
- Add the cold brew coffee to a high-speed blender first.
- Add the frozen banana, rolled oats, unsweetened cocoa powder, a small pinch of fine sea salt, and the vanilla extract.
- Add the ice cubes.
- Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds until completely smooth.
- Check consistency and blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional cold brew coffee if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes or frozen banana slices if too thin.
- Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.
Tips
- For a creamier texture, substitute the ice cubes with frozen coffee ice cubes or add 1/4 cup milk or plant-based milk. You can prepare the oats the night before by soaking them in the coffee.
