Pro Tips

  • Perfect 30-60 minutes pre-workout for sustained energy and focus
  • Make it a meal replacement by adding 1 tbsp chia seeds or oats

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the coffee taste be too strong?

No! The banana and almond butter balance the coffee flavor perfectly. You get smooth, subtle coffee notes—not overpowering bitterness. It tastes like a coffee-flavored milkshake.

When is the best time to drink this?

Great as breakfast, pre-workout (30-60 min before), or post-workout recovery. The combination of protein, carbs, healthy fats, and mushroom coffee makes it versatile for any morning or afternoon.

Can I prep this ahead of time?

Not recommended—smoothies are best fresh. However, you can pre-portion dry ingredients (mushroom coffee + protein powder) in a container and pre-freeze banana slices for quick blending in the morning.

Is 20g protein enough for a meal replacement?

Yes for most people! At 240 calories with 20g protein, it's a solid breakfast or snack. For a fuller meal, add 1 tbsp chia seeds, 2 tbsp oats, or use 1.5 scoops protein powder (bringing it to ~27g protein).
