Notes
Storage: Best enjoyed fresh. Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 day; shake or re-blend before serving as separation may occur. Make-ahead: Brew coffee and measure dry ingredients ahead; blend just before serving for optimal texture. Substitutions: Use any milk (dairy or plant-based), swap maple syrup with agave or stevia, and replace Greek yogurt with a dairy-free alternative like coconut yogurt. Serving suggestions: Pair with a biscotti or enjoy as a morning pick-me-up.
