Bullet Coffee – For Kids? Try This Creamy Almond Version
Have you tried butter in your coffee? Not just any butter – check this recipe for the original, BulletProof grass-fed butter coffee story. It is delicious – and here’s an even better way for your kids to try it too. This is a good hot-day start before school, or an alternative to cocoa. Instead of hooking your kids on sugary, syrupy coffee drinks filled with GMO junk and weird fats, make this one at home. I use organic water-processed decaffeinated coffee, with other ingredients organic too. Kids can enjoy this luxurious treat that gives them protein and healthy fats without sugar – NOW brand organic stevia drops take the place of sugar.
- 12 ounces strong black decaf coffee
- 4 ounces unsweetened plain almond milk
- 1 teaspoon grass fed butter try Kerry Gold Irish grass fed for healthiest fats
- 1 teaspoon Brain Octane oil
- 1/2 teaspoon almond butter
- 1 scoop BulletProof collagen
- 1-4 drops SweetLeaf organic stevia plain or flavored (vanilla, toffee, etc)
- Make some strong decaf coffee. I happened to use an old Farberware percolator for this - it was on hand in a friend's kitchen when I made this recipe - and it made super delicious, dark coffee - fast!
- Pour 12 ounces (1 and 1/2 cups) of the hot coffee into a wide mouth glass that can accommodate an immersion blender. Add the butter and Brain Octane and blend. You can also use a regular blender.
- Add the almond butter, almond milk and collagen and blend til creamy. Stevia is optional - most kids enjoy a little sweet touch, and organic stevia drops easily accomplish this without added sugar.
- Adjust levels of any of the ingredients to your desired taste - for more dark coffee flavor, more almond flavor, or more sweet. Versatile and easy!
- Enjoy!
I keep these on hand in my kitchen - they work well in so many recipes, and are well tolerated by kids with allergy and sensitivity. Even for kids with coconut sensitivity, Brain Octane is often workable, and is an excellent fuel for brain, gut, and growth.
