Iced Cinnamon Almond Milk Macchiato
During the summer, iced coffee is a must. This eye-catching Iced Cinnamon Almond Milk Macchiato is inspired by the iced beverage served up at coffee houses.
Both our version and theirs use unsweetened almond milk for flavoring, but unlike the fancy coffee houses’, this macchiato is packed with protein and skips the sugary syrups. If you’d rather not drink this beverage in layers, you can easily turn it into a smoothie by blending all of the ingredients together.
For the bottom half, blend Vanilla or Vegan Vanilla Shakeology with unsweetened almond milk and ice. For the top, blend Café Latte or Café Latte Vegan Shakeology with unsweetened almond milk, cinnamon, and pure caramel extract. To replicate the layered effect, pour the milky layer into your glass first, while holding the glass at a slight angle, then carefully spoon the coffee layer on top. Swirl slightly with a straw and enjoy!
