Instructions

Add the cold brew coffee to a high-speed blender.
Add the ripe banana, unsweetened shredded coconut, fine sea salt, and pure 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 and creamy.
Check consistency. Blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional cold brew coffee if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use a ripe banana to add natural sweetness and creaminess. For a dairy-free alternative, substitute banana with a spoonful of nut butter or avocado.
