Let me tell you about my new favorite way to kickstart my mornings: a creamy, dreamy Peanut Butter Iced Coffee Shake!
If you’re anything like me, breakfast can feel like a bit of a struggle—especially when you’re trying to squeeze in something nutritious and get your caffeine fix.
That’s why this recipe is such a game-changer. It’s a 2-in-1 coffee and protein breakfast that’s smooth, rich, and oh-so-easy to make.
Plus, you’ll get that satisfying peanut butter flavor we all love!
This drink is packed with 13 grams of protein, and it’s ready in minutes.
Seriously, whether you’re running late for school drop-off, hustling to work, or just want a cozy pick-me-up during the day, this shake will deliver. Let’s get started!
What You’ll Need:
- 1 scoop of Javy Instant Protein Coffee (original flavor)
- 1 tablespoon of PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter
- 1 cup of milk (regular, almond, or oat—your choice!)
- Ice cubes
- Optional: a splash of vanilla extract and/or a sweetener like stevia, sugar, or honey
Pro Tips:
- For extra creaminess, use oat milk or a splash of half-and-half in place of part of the milk.
- Blend for a frothier texture: While stirring works just fine, using a blender or shaker bottle will give you that café-style froth.
- Customize the sweetness: Taste your drink before adding any sweetener—depending on your milk and peanut butter powder, it may already be sweet enough.
- Add more protein if needed: Toss in another tablespoon of PB2 for an extra protein boost!
- Fun topping idea: Sprinkle some crushed peanuts or chocolate shavings on top for a little fancy flair.
Tools You’ll Need:
- A tall glass or shaker bottle
- A stirring spoon or small whisk
- Measuring spoons
Substitutions & Variations:
- Milk: Substitute with almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk for a dairy-free version.
- Peanut Butter Powder: Swap for regular peanut butter or almond butter if you don’t mind blending it in.
- Flavors: Add a dash of cinnamon or cocoa powder to mix things up!
- Sweeteners: Use maple syrup, agave, or even a sugar-free syrup for different sweetness levels.
Make-Ahead Tips:
- Mix the dry ingredients (protein coffee and PB2) ahead of time and store them in a small jar. When you’re ready, just add milk and ice, then shake or stir!
