I love smoothies for breakfast, but the thought of drinking something cold on a winter's morning is not appealing to me. So yesterday I created this! I hope you like it!

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups almond milk

  • 1 tablespoon hemp seeds

  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds

  • 1 tablespoon almond butter

  • 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules

  • 1 teaspoon agave nectar, or to taste

Directions

  1. Place almond milk, hemp seeds, chia seeds, almond butter, cocoa powder, instant coffee, and agave nectar in a blender; blend until smooth. Pour into a small saucepan and heat, stirring frequently, over medium-low heat until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Pour into a mug.

Cook's Note:

I think this would also be great using an espresso shot instead of the coffee granules.
