So I just got in from mowing the lawn, or part of it. To mow the lawn at our place you need some time and a big mower. Today I had time but I used the little mower...by little mower I mean our 47" deck John Deer. Its really pretty nice. It's a hand-me-down from some dear friends and I pretty much know how to do what I need to do on it and get out of binds if they should happen (ahem) but it is slower so I was out there for an hour or two (I lost track because of the podcasts and books I was listening to). Anyway...after I showered I wanted something cold and refreshing...and I remembered the cold brew from our local coffee shop (The Mill)...cue angels singing!
But then I got an idea...what if I blended up some almond milk, a bit of frozen banana + ice for texture, of course a shot of the cold brew, a scoop of cocoa, some chocolate chips, a couple drops of doTERRA Peppermint, and a tiny bit of our TerraGreens ? Well I did it and the pictures represents what I ended up with...coffee lovers paradise!
Here's a more precise recipe:
- small handful of ice + about a 1/4 frozen banana
- 1/2 cup Almond Milk (I like Blue Diamond)
- 1/4 cup The Mill's Cold Brew
- small handful of chocolate chips
- 2 drops doTERRA Peppermint
- 1/2-1 tsp TerraGreens (These greens are dehydrated but pack a taste punch so I use a little less for things that I want to really taste the drink or food not the TerraGreens - smoothies use a half to full scoop)
- Blend it up and enjoy! Mine has been long gone, and this post is short. ;)
