When I first heard about adding coconut oil to your coffee, I thought it a bit strange. Like they always say, don't judge a book by its cover. Once I tried it I was sold. The benefits of using coconut oil in your coffee is that the oil provides an extra boost of energy. So instead of loading up your coffee with sugar filled syrups that will ultimately lead to a sugar crash, you now have a natural boost of energy with healthy fats and without the crash. Not only that, but adding coconut oil to your coffee creates an amazing, creamy texture with natural froth on the top. From all the articles I've read, the key to this recipe is to blend the ingredients together, not stir. Blending will help you acheive that perfect, creamy texture you're looking for.
ingredients:
one cup of organic brewed coffee
1/2 tbsp coconut oil
optional* a few drops of vanilla extract
Begin by brewing a cup of your favorite coffee. Once brewed, add in the coconut oil and vanilla extract. Put it in the blender and blend it for one minute. This will create a creamy, frothy texture. Serve immediately. If you like your coffee to be on the sweeter side, add in a few drops of agave syrup.
