Salted Caramel Coffee Smoothie with Chocolate Chips
This vegan smoothie combines strong coffee, salted caramel, and chocolate chips into a creamy, indulgent drink that tastes like dessert with benefits.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cold brewed coffee chilled and ready to handle business
- 1 frozen banana for creaminess and fake health
- 1 tbsp vegan salted caramel sauce
- 1 tbsp vegan chocolate chips plus a few more to sprinkle
- 1 cup almond or oat milk unsweetened, of course
- 1 tsp vanilla extract optional, but adds class
- Pinch of sea salt because it’s not caramel without it
- 1 tbsp chia or flax seeds for pretending this is healthy
- 5 ice cubes because lukewarm is not the vibe
Instructions
- Add cold coffee, banana, milk, caramel sauce, and sea salt to your blender.
- Toss in chia or flax seeds and a splash of vanilla if you’re feeling cute.
- Blend until smooth and creamy, like your best flirting voice.
- Add chocolate chips and pulse once or twice—don’t overblend. We want texture, not regret.
- Pour into a tall glass. Top with extra chocolate chips because life’s too short.
- Sip slowly, act classy, and pretend this isn’t your fourth coffee of the day.
