Delightful Mornings with International Delight Iced Coffee – Smoothie-Style #IcedDelight

There are some days where the mornings are delightful – and there are some days where I’m OUT of coffee. I obviously much prefer the mornings where coffee is present. I typically enjoy a nice warm drink for about 6-9 months during the year in Minnesota: but in the warmer months I am all over the iced coffee drinks. One of my favorites is International Delight Iced Coffee. although I’ve tried most of the flavors – my favorite is Vanilla.

The photo above of the iced coffee ice cubes absolutely blew my mind! I love the idea of making the ice cubes from the Iced Coffee to avoid watering down my favorite drink. But it got me thinking. I could totally use these ice cubes and blend them up with some fruit – and make a completely awesome pick-me-up smoothie!

Using a little liquid and some of the coffee ice cubes – the smoothie turned out fantastic. My grandma who is visiting said she was so surprised at how smooth and beautiful it tasted and she helped me drink it all up.

After making this and realizing how amazing it tasted– I was thinking about how tomorrow I’m going to add some dried oatmeal or maybe almonds (or both!) to the mixture – so I’ve got a little more fiber and protein to the drink.
