- 1 tablespoon caramel sauce
- 1/2 cup ice
Optional Toppings

Instructions
- Brew Coffee: Brew a strong cup of coffee and allow it to cool completely to avoid melting the ice too quickly in the shake.

- Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed until the mixture is fully combined, creamy, and smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness or texture if needed by adding more caramel sauce or milk.

Notes
- Use strong brewed coffee for a more pronounced coffee flavor.
- Choose your favorite type of milk to customize the shake’s creaminess and dietary preferences.
- Adjust the amount of caramel sauce to taste for sweetness level.
- To make this shake vegan, use plant-based milk and ensure protein powder is vegan-friendly.
- For a thicker shake, add more ice or a frozen banana.
