Happiness is . . .

A freshly poured, steaming hot, creamy, dreamy, bulletproof coconut latte . . .

Especially when it’s shared with a friend.

So that’s what we’re doing today!

A good cup of coffee enjoyed in the presence of good company, is there anything better?!

Not that I can think of . . . unless, maybe, we had one or two of these tasty treats to go with . . .

Those of you who have been following along for a while now will know I looovvvvveeeee me some coffee!

Like, only with my oxygen!

I mean, without the coffee “I stop doing the standing, walking, and words putting into sentence doing.” ← Name that TV show!*

Earlier this week it dawned on me, as I was quietly sitting, sipping on my creamy, dreamy, coconut latte, that I hadn’t officially shared my coffee “recipe” with you!

I’ve posted it on Instagram and shared it on Facebook and I always get so many messages, questions and comments about how I make it (which I happily answer, I love hearing from you guys) but, for some reason I guess I just never got around to posting it here?!

I am so sorry. I feel like a terrible friend!

I guess this is one of those recipes that’s not really a recipe.

It’s something I kind of figured was to simple to share, you know?

It’s not fancy.

It’s not complicated.

It’s a simple necessity of life.

A daily staple.

A sweet, savored, sacred ritual that I do every. single. morning. Without even thinking about it.

I’d love nothing more than to be able to sit, sip and savor this deliciousness with you, my sweet internet BFF.

I’m so sorry I’ve been holding out on you . . .

That being said, one sip of this creamy, dreamy deliciousness and all will be forgiven I’m sure.

These bulletproof coconut lattes are seriously dreamy.

The deliciously nutty, subtle sweetness of coconut butter combined with the deep, earthy, slightly bitter, richness of espresso marries so perfectly together. It really is simply, divine!

If you’re not a fan of bulletproof coffee please don’t run away.

This was something I was hesitant to try too, the thought of putting butter in my coffee . . . ummmmm no thanks!

But, the thought of coconut butter in my coffee . . . now that intrigued me.

So, when my curiosity finally got the better of me, I gave it a try and since then . . . no turning back.

Not only does it taste all kinds of incredible – blending a spoonful of coconut butter in with your espresso makes your latte silky smooth, incredibly luscious and extra creamy – just the way I like it!

But, research shows that adding a little healthy fat into your coffee helps keep your blood sugar stable and, you also don’t get those post caffeine jitters – something I can vouch for 100%.

Health benefits aside, these all natural, quick and easy, creamy, dreamy, coconut lattes are life and you need one in yours asap!

From my coffee loving heart to yours – I hope you enjoy it as much as I do which just in case you didn’t catch it, is A LOT!

Enjoy xo
