I’m sure everyone’s heard of the bullet coffee, here’s our rendition done with NO DAIRY. The addition of avocado to your coffee is going to turn up the flavor and texture of your morning cup. Dark chocolate and dates give this drink some sweetness, and a bit of pepper adds a little spicy kick, just enough to make your mouth water. However, don’t feel like you have to add the chilis, we’re a bit bonkers for the heat.

This is a great start to your morning before heading to the gym for a workout or yoga class. Lighter than a big breakfast, but giving you an energy boost as you dive into the day. We are using a french press to brew our coffee, if you have automatic drip or pour-over, go on and use your preferred brewing method.
