Instructions

Add the ingredients to the blender: Pour the cold brewed coffee, milk (whole or almond), frozen banana cubes, honey, unsweetened cacao powder, and crushed ice cubes into a blender container.
Blend the mixture: Pulse the blender a few times to start mixing the ingredients, then blend continuously for 20 to 30 seconds until the smoothie becomes smooth and creamy in texture.
Serve and garnish: Pour the smoothie evenly into two glasses and optionally top each with canned whipped cream for extra flavor and presentation.

Notes

Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and creaminess.
Adjust the type of milk according to dietary preferences or allergies.
The honey can be substituted with maple syrup or a sugar alternative if desired.
For a stronger coffee taste, use espresso or concentrate the brewed coffee before chilling.
The whip cream garnish is optional and can be omitted for a lighter option.
Using frozen bananas reduces the need for additional ice and creates a thick texture.
