Start your day off right by providing your body with a healthy surge of nutrients to keep you alert and nourished all day. As a result, here are 28 simple and healthy morning drinks you’ll love!
28. Blueberry Mango Smoothie
The distinctive flavor of blueberries is incomparable, especially when they’re perfectly ripe, providing a delightful sweetness.
I make sure to gather an ample supply during their peak season in summer, stashing them in the freezer to preserve their taste.
Thus, I can relish in their delectably sweet and succulent goodness all year round.
Incorporating mangoes elevates this smoothie to a whole new level, potentially making it your latest obsession.
Just gaze at its profound blue-purple hue! It’s incredibly deep and rich, but your first mouthful will present a burst of lush mango that is nothing short of mesmerizing.
27. Easy Iced Mocha Recipe
Have you ever tried adding chocolate milk to your coffee?
Isn’t that combination of strong, rich coffee and creamy, smooth chocolate just to die for?
To make this chocolate coffee combo, you’ll just need your favorite chocolate syrup and a pot of cold brew.
When making iced coffee, you can make a pot and leave it to go cold.
But if you start out with cold-brewed coffee, I think you’ll agree that it’s so much smoother.
26. Cafe Latte
Those with a deep affinity for coffee will acknowledge that it can be a pricey pastime, particularly for latte lovers.
Despite milk not being significantly costly, requesting it to be steamed mysteriously amplifies your drink’s cost.
Why not occasionally whip up some lattes at home? This way, when we do splurge, the experience is exceptionally enjoyable!
No specialized coffee equipment or frother on hand? No issue. Simply warm the milk in a pot and decant it into your cup.
Next, use a low-cost, battery-operated milk frother to lightly whisk it, then pour in your coffee.
For a plant-based version, I suggest oat milk. It froths more effectively than other non-dairy alternatives, which tend to be quite thin.
Alternatively, you could always opt for coconut milk, which offers a delightful creaminess.
25. Chocolate Almond Butter Berry Smoothie (No Banana)
Numerous smoothie recipes include banana due to its inherent sweetness and its ability to thicken the beverage when frozen.
But bananas aren’t universally loved, and some folks even suffer from allergies. So, how can you maintain your smoothies’ creamy thickness?
As discussed earlier, readily available frozen berries can render your smoothies dense. While it won’t be as rich, it’s a decent substitute.
Almond butter can aid in this, but if you’re aiming for creaminess, try incorporating avocado instead.
Avocados are brimming with nutrients and beneficial fats, and their subtle flavor ensures they’re practically imperceptible in the smoothie.
24. Coffee Smoothie
If frappuccinos are your weakness, this thick and velvety coffee smoothie is sure to impress.
Instead of being packed with sugar and calories, it includes dates for a natural sweetness, nut butter for a delicate nutty flavor, and hemp seeds for a protein kick.
The dates also contribute a caramel undertone. To enhance their juiciness and flavor, consider soaking them in hot water until they soften.
To achieve the desired thickness, you’ll need to add ice cubes. However, to preserve the flavor, you could opt for coffee ice cubes.
Just brew a pot of regular coffee and fill ice cube trays with it (once it’s cooled).
Or, prepare a cold brew and freeze that in your trays.
This way, you maintain the same smoothie texture, but the flavor doesn’t get diluted as it settles.
23. How to Make an Americano
An Americano is essentially a diluted espresso, combining the strength of espresso with hot water. It’s a potent black coffee variant and should be served without milk.
The intention is to make a highly concentrated coffee with a rich taste, then balance it with hot water.
Adding water mitigates any bitterness and extends the lifespan of your beverage.
For a more intense coffee, use a ratio of two parts water to one part espresso. If you prefer it milder, use three parts water to one part espresso.
If you enjoy a sweeter coffee, consider incorporating Cafecito sugar foam.
You simply need to whisk a small quantity of hot coffee with sugar until it becomes light and frothy.
22. Mixed Berry Smoothie Recipe
Berries make an excellent choice for smoothie concoctions.
They are widely accessible, blend seamlessly with any assortment of fruits, and they add a vibrant touch to your morning beverages.
This recipe calls for apple juice, providing a tangy dimension to the blend. However, its creaminess is not compromised, thanks to the inclusion of Greek yogurt.
Feel free to utilize a pre-packaged assortment of frozen berries, or create your own mix based on your preferences.
Frozen fruits will yield a particularly dense smoothie, but incorporating fresh berries is also an option.
21. Simple French Vanilla Cappuccino Recipe
Cappuccinos comprise equivalent proportions of steamed milk, espresso, and foam.
In contrast to lattes, which have a higher milk to coffee ratio, this beverage offers a more pronounced coffee flavor.
To attain the desirable vanilla flavor, you’ll initiate by infusing the milk. Combine them in a pot and gently warm it, stirring periodically and ensuring it doesn’t reach a boil.
The vanilla aroma should be perceptible, but make sure to remove the vanilla pod before introducing the coffee.
20. Cleansing Cucumber Pineapple Juice
While I wouldn’t advocate for substituting entire meals with juices, they make an excellent kick-start to your day.
After all, the right combination of ingredients can offer ample fiber, antioxidants, and hydration in a single serving.
Cucumbers are surprisingly nutrient-dense, and their high water content provides immediate hydration.
Adding pineapple makes this juice delightfully sweet, mildly tangy, and exudes a subtle tropical vibe.
19. Iced Caramel English Breakfast Tea Latte
Tea purists (and our friends from the UK) might find this concept bewildering. Iced tea, coupled with milk and caramel?
Many Brits might consider this unconventional, but whispers it’s unexpectedly delightful!
If you’re a fan of iced chai lattes, this will likely be to your liking. Granted, it doesn’t incorporate any warm spices, but it’s creamy, sweet, and teeming with enticing black tea flavors.
18. Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
For those who prefer a vibrant start to their day, fruit juice fits the bill. It’s refreshing, sweet, naturally delectable, and packed with nutrients.
And what could be superior to a generous serving of fresh OJ?
Commercially available orange juice often contains substantial quantities of added sugars, and if you choose a pulp-free variant, you’re missing out on most of the fruit’s inherent vitamins.
Navel and Valencia oranges are my preferred options for juicing, given their balanced sweet and tart profiles and their abundant juice content, saving you from requiring an excessive number of oranges for a single glass.
17. Green Smoothie
Individuals often seek healthier dietary options to balance periods of overindulgence.
This is likely why green juices and smoothies are enjoying their current popularity.
I personally enjoy starting my day with an invigorating boost of vitamins and minerals, and they’re effortless to prepare.
If you’re hesitant due to the prominent green color, try out this recipe – I suspect you’ll find it surprisingly pleasing.
Spinach is my preferred ingredient for green smoothies as it’s a superfood with a very subtle taste. In this smoothie, it’s virtually imperceptible.
16. Blended Oat Breakfast Drink
Oats are among the most beneficial grains, loaded with vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants.
But there’s no need to forego these benefits just because you’re opting for a liquid breakfast, right?
You’ll simply need a high-performance blender, a sweetener like honey or maple syrup, and possibly some additional spices.
A high-quality blender is critical, as the oats need to be thoroughly blended for around 30 seconds at a high setting to achieve a drinkable consistency.
A less robust blender might struggle to handle this task.
