It was a steamy hot day in London, the type where you only want to wear a dress and waft about the place. I have to have my daily fix of caffeine to get the day’s proceedings moving, so I headed to the Vitamix to whizz up a cooling version of my daily drink.
It’s not too sweet, has got fruit in it, but also caffeine and energy from the banana so is the perfect start to your day as well as being an antidote to the oppressive weather we’re having.
It’s a very simple affair…

Thanks to Vitamix for providing me with a blender, Â for which I am providing recipes to demonstrate its performance
This sounds absolutely delicious ! Thank you for sharing another great recipe.
Vitamix are absolutely amazing. Soup to ice-cream in an instant. This smoothie is a fab idea
Thanks! I didn’t really used to rate iced coffee, but i’m absolutely converted to the cause 🙂
For some unknown reasons, the actual taste of coffee comes out stronger when cold.
I am addicted to iced coffee whenever I can get it, but I have not made it myself (perhaps I would if I had a Vitamix!! Lol!) Love the idea of adding banana to it…thats just pure genius! I hope to making myself one of these in the near future if all goes to plan! xx
Get your hands on a Vitamix Anneli… your life will be transformed 😉
