Ingredients:
1 cup brewed coffee (preferably strong or espresso)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or any yogurt of your choice)
1-2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (for sweetness)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional for flavor)
Ice cubes (optional for a cold version)
A pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder (optional for garnish)
Instructions:
Brew Your Coffee: Start by brewing your favorite coffee. For an extra bold taste, espresso or a dark roast works best. Let it cool slightly so it doesn’t melt the yogurt.
Prepare the Yogurt: In a bowl, take the Greek yogurt and mix it until smooth. You can add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup to sweeten it to your liking.
Combine the Ingredients: Gradually pour the cooled coffee into the yogurt while stirring gently. Continue mixing until the coffee and yogurt are well blended together. For an extra creaminess, use a hand blender to fully incorporate.
Serve: Pour the coffee-yogurt mixture into a glass. Add ice cubes if you prefer it chilled.
Optional Garnish: Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder on top for a flavorful twist.
Enjoy: Take a sip and enjoy the creamy, energizing goodness of your new favorite treat!
Tips for Serving and Storing:
Serving: This coffee-yogurt treat is perfect for a quick breakfast or as a mid-day pick-me-up. You can also serve it in small bowls for a more dessert-like experience. If you’re entertaining, try layering it in a glass jar for a visually appealing presentation.
Storing: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. However, this treat is best enjoyed fresh to keep the flavors vibrant.
