If you’re a coffee and coconut lover, then this Keto Coconut Coffee Smoothie might just be for you!
I’ve been seeing these amazing inventive drinks that are being made across cafes in South Korea. I’m sure by now you may have heard of Dalgona Coffee, internet’s latest craze?
That drink originated from Korea as well! I tried my hand in making it and it definitely lived up to the hype. You can find our low carb recipe for it here.
After I made a low carb version of the Dalgona Coffee, I decided to look at what other creative drinks I could make low-carb/keto and came across this coconut smoothie with an espresso pour over.
I thought that looks simple enough not to mention I love the combination of coffee and coconut so I started experimenting!
As always, I like to keep my recipes as simple as possible and with that in mind, I was able to create this delicious coconut coffee smoothie using unsweetened coconut milk, Monkfruit Erythritol Blend, ice, and an Instant Coffee pour over. Simple and easy!
I think it’s important to mention that since I have only seen this drink in pictures, I don’t actually know what it tastes like. This is my own interpretation of what I think it might taste like in case anyone makes it with the expectation of a traditional coconut coffee smoothie.
This coconut smoothie is perfect for anytime of the day you need a refreshing drink with a coffee pick me up!
When I created this drink, I kept in mind that not everyone has an espresso maker so I used instant coffee for the pour over. However, if you would rather make and use espresso, by all means, do so!
Lastly, if you would like more coconut flavor, you can add a tablespoon of coconut cream to create a more intense flavor.
Now, let’s get started!
