— A High-Protein Blend With All the Caramel Vibes

It’s got real coffee, smooth milk, rich caramel flavor, and enough fuel to carry you through workouts, commutes, or mid-afternoon crashes. Think of it as a caramel latte… with muscles.

Ingredients (Serves 1–2)

• ¾ cup cold brew or chilled coffee
• ½ cup milk or milk alternative (almond, oat, or dairy)
• 1 frozen banana
• 1 scoop vanilla or caramel protein powder
• 1–2 tsp caramel sauce or sugar-free caramel syrup (adjust to taste)
• ½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
• 1 cup ice
• Pinch of sea salt (optional, to enhance sweetness)

Optional Add-Ins

• 1 tbsp peanut or almond butter (for richness)
• 1 tbsp oats or chia seeds (for staying power)
• Dash of cinnamon or nutmeg
• 1 tbsp Greek yogurt (for creamier texture)
• Collagen peptides or flaxseed for an extra health kick

Instructions

1. Add coffee, milk, banana, protein powder, caramel, ice, and any extras to a blender.
2. Blend on high until smooth and frosty.
3. Taste and adjust sweetness or consistency as needed.
4. Pour into a glass and (optionally) drizzle with extra caramel.

Flavor Variations

🧂 Salted Caramel Latte

• Add a big pinch of flaky sea salt
• Use oat milk for a buttery, café-style taste

🍌 Banana Caramel Smoothie

• Use a whole banana and skip sweetener — let the fruit shine
• Add a little cinnamon for extra warmth

🍫 Caramel Mocha

• Add 1 tbsp cocoa powder or chocolate protein
• Top with a few dark chocolate shavings

Pro Tips

• Use frozen coffee cubes to intensify flavor without watering it down
• For a richer base, swap banana for frozen Greek yogurt or avocado
• Caramel protein powders work great here — adjust added caramel to taste
• Make it dessert: top with whipped cream and a caramel drizzle

Final Thoughts

The Caramel Latte Smoothie is cool, craveable, and caffeine-ready — blending the sweet, cozy flavor of a caramel latte with the smart fuel of a protein shake. It’s indulgent enough to satisfy and functional enough to power you through.
