Ingredients

¾ cup 2% milk
1½ cups plain Greek yogurt (or vanilla Greek yogurt!)
2 tbsp honey
2 tsp finely ground instant coffee granules
2 large bananas sliced and frozen (see note)
½ cup ice cubes optional

Instructions

Place all ingredients in a blender (in the order listed.)
Put the lid on; start out your blender on low speed and increase to high.
Blend until smooth and you can no longer see the coffee granules. (If it's too thick, blend in some extra milk.)
Evenly divide between two glasses and enjoy! (Just halve all the ingredients if you only want one smoothie.)

Notes

How to freeze banana. You can use ripe bananas that aren’t frozen, but frozen banana slices make the smoothie thicker and creamier. To freeze bananas, slice and put on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet, stick in the freezer for at least 45 minutes, then transfer to a freezer safe plastic Ziploc bag and place in the freezer until ready to use.
