Treat yourself to this refreshing, low-calorie coffee drink. I’m a little obsessed with it and make it every day..Sometimes a few times a day! It’s light with the subtle flavors of coffee, vanilla, coconut, and oh-so-yummy. It actually can be made with coconut or almond milk. Each large drink has only 30 calories, 2g fat, and just 1 Blue WW Freestyle SmartPoints and 1 Green. Have fun super skinny sipping!
Prep Time: 5 minutes (not including chilling the coffee)
Ingredients
⅔ cup strong brewed regular coffee or decaf (chilled), I like using vanilla or hazelnut, see prep tips below
⅓ cup unsweetened vanilla coconut milk, vanilla almond/coconut milk or unsweetened vanilla/almond milk, I like Blue Diamond or Silk
1 cup ice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-2 packages Truvia, Stevia or Splenda, to taste
Instructions
1. In a blender, add chilled coffee and all other ingredients including 1 pkg. of sweetener. Blend on high until all the ice is thoroughly crushed and the drink is smooth. Taste. Add 1 more sweetener, if desired. Blend again. Pour into a glass or travel cup. Add a straw and enjoy!
Makes 1 serving, 2 cups (16 oz)
Prep Tips
I made the coffee in my Keurig Machine. I set it for an 8-ounce cup. It makes a much stronger cup. Or brew your coffee extra strong. Regular or decaf coffee works great. I like to make mine with hazelnut or vanilla coffee. Use your favorite.
Regular ice works great, but you can freeze your own coffee cubes for a double dose of caffeine. To make coffee cubes, fill an ice tray with chilled coffee, and leave it in your freezer overnight. Use 1 cup coffee cubes to replace ice cubes

This sounds wonderful but where the heck do the 7 carbs come from?
Linda, oddly the carbs are mostly coming from the Stevia.
Enjoy!
