Iced Vanilla Coconut Maple Coffee

Ingredients

(All clean, non-toxic, and dairy-optional):

  • 8 oz organic brewed coffee (chilled — use French press or pour-over for fewer microplastics)
  • 1/2 cup full-fat organic coconut milk (or raw grass-fed milk or a homemade nut milk)
  • 1–2 tsp real maple syrup (or raw local honey)
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract (organic, alcohol-free if possible)
  • Dash of Ceylon cinnamon (optional, for blood sugar balance)
  • Ice cubes (filtered water or coffee ice cubes for extra flavor)

Optional Add-ins

(for a functional boost):

  • 1/2 tsp collagen peptides (clean, grass-fed source)
  • Pinch of sea salt (balances electrolytes and enhances flavor)
  • A few drops of trace minerals (for hydration)
  • Adaptogens like ashwagandha or maca (only if you’ve used them before and are comfortable)

Directions:

  1. Brew the coffee and let it cool to room temperature, then chill it in the fridge (or brew it cold overnight).
  2. In a mason jar or glass, combine the coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and optional cinnamon or collagen. Stir or shake well.
  3. Add ice cubes to a large glass or tumbler.
  4. Pour the chilled coffee over the ice, then add the milk mixture.
  5. Stir and taste — adjust sweetness or creaminess as needed.

Why It’s “Crunchy” Approved:

  • No seed oils, artificial creamers, or syrups
  • Naturally sweetened
  • Gut-friendly with optional collagen
  • Hydrating and blood sugar-friendly if balanced with fat/protein
