Print Recipe

A quick and easy iced coffee shake blended with vanilla protein powder, almond milk, and ice for a creamy, energizing summer treat that’s perfect for breakfast or post-workout.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz (240 ml) cold brew coffee or strong brewed coffee, chilled
  • 1 scoop (about 30g) vanilla protein powder (whey or plant-based)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1 cup (about 150g) ice cubes
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1–2 tsp sweetener of choice (optional: maple syrup, honey, or sugar substitute)
  • 2 tbsp Greek yogurt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Chill your coffee ahead by brewing a strong coffee (about double strength) and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Cold brew works well too.
  2. Add the cold coffee, vanilla protein powder, and unsweetened almond milk into a blender.
  3. Add ice cubes to the blender.
  4. Pour in pure vanilla extract and add sweetener if using. Add Greek yogurt for extra creaminess and protein if desired.
  5. Blend on high for 30 seconds to 1 minute until smooth and velvety with no chunks.
  6. Taste and adjust sweetness or milk as needed, then blend again if necessary.
  7. Serve immediately in a glass with a reusable straw.

Notes

Use cold or chilled coffee to avoid watering down the shake. Blend ice last or gradually to prevent over-thickening. For thicker shakes, add frozen banana or Greek yogurt. Sweeten sparingly as vanilla protein powder may already contain sweetener. Prepare coffee the night before for convenience. If protein powder clumps, add liquid first and blend on low speed before adding ice.
