Adaptogenic Coconut Coffee Slushee
With temps rising here in California, I need not only an afternoon pick-me-up but a cool down too! I’m traditionally a matcha person but nothing quite hits the spot like this frozen coffee! I added Lions Mane mushroom powder for some added healing benefits and topped it with coconut whipped cream because… why not?
Make sure to use cold coffee and a can of full fat coconut milk that has been chilled and not shaken! This is key for the texture and frothiness. You’ll only use the top fatty part of the coconut milk so save the clear liquid for smoothies!

Makes 2 Slushees
The Goods:
1 can full fat coconut milk, chilled and fat scooped off
2 tbsp coconut sugar
1 1/2 cups chilled coffee
1 cup nut milk of choice (we used coconut)
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp lions mane mushroom powder
2 cups ice
cacao nibs for topping
The Method:
In a bowl, add the chilled fat from the coconut milk can and the sugar. Whip with a whisk for about 3 minutes until smooth and whipped cream like. Set aside in the fridge.
Add everything else except the ice and the cacao nibs into the blender. Blend until smooth and frothy.
Add the ice, and blend just until you get a slushee texture.
Pour into two of your favorite glasses. Top with whipped cream and cacao nibs!
If you’re feeling frisky, you can add liquor 43 while you blend for a little added spiked twist!
