Almond Banana Espresso Shake

Almond Banana Espresso Shake

I fancied something a little different this morning! Mondays can be hard enough to get through let alone without coffee!! As you know I generally have a Green Smoothie every morning but checked out my cupboard and fridge for something sweet with a caffeine kick to satisfy my cravings, but also something clean and healthy! And that’s where this Almond Banana Espresso Shake came from!

Almond Banana Espresso Shake

Ingredients:

  • Handful of Ice
  • 1 Shot of Espresso
  • 3 Dates
  • 1 Banana
  • 1 large tsp of Almond Butter
  • 1 Cup of Almond Milk
  • Dash of Vanilla Extract

Method:

Blitz it all in your Nutribullet or Blender and serve over Ice! It’s that easy!

Substitutions:

  • Any Nut Milk will do – or Dairy if that’s your preference!
  • Peanut or Cashew Butter could work instead of Almond Butter
  • I used the Dates and Banana as a sweetener but you could use Agave / Honey or Maple Syrup

Of course using substitutions will alter the taste and the cleanliness of this but do what I did and mess around with the ingredients you have available and see what works for you!

Enjoy!
