2. Prepare ingredients: In a blender, add the cooled coffee, milk, banana, cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract.

3. Add Chia Seeds : If you want an extra boost of nutrition, add the chia seeds to the blender.

4. Blend: Add a handful of ice cubes and blend until smooth and creamy.

5. Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass. You can sprinkle a little cocoa powder or cinnamon on top for garnish if desired.
