Bulletproof coffee

[StuntNun]

Please tell me your 'recipe' for bulletproof coffee. I've tried:

just coconut oil (made me feel sick but I might have used too much);

tbsp butter and tsp coconut oil;

tsp coconut oil and a slosh of double cream;

10g butter and 10g coconut oil.

Apart from the first one which was oily for me, they're okay but not that fantastic so I'm wondering what ingredients and proportions other people use.

Have just started having regular bulletproof coffees. Have experimented a bit (was at the thought of adding butter) but settled on:

tsp coconut oil
tsp butter (salted! but you can't taste it)
small slosh double cream

Actually prefer it with the butter now, it's creamier. I do find I need to keep stirring it though...

Apparently on the bulletproof site they're really, really fussy about the kind of coffee, but I've just been using that Azera stuff. Am definitely not a coffee snob though

2 tbsp coconut oil, sometimes a tbsp of butter or ghee, and 1 tbsp mct oil. planning to up the mct oil if I can tolerate it.

Oh and I blend it rather than stir, much tastier.

1 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp butter
Half tsp cinnamon
2 tsp coffee (I also use Azera)

Blended.

Ooh cinnamon sounds nice. Is Azera a special coffee? I'm not much of a coffee connoisseur so I just use Tesco own brand Columbian ground coffee.

No not really, it's an instant but a nice instant.

Tbh my thinking is that it's the fat that matters more than the coffee, but no idea if that's 'correct' or not.

Tastes nice though!

Next question stick blender or liquidiser?

I use a stick blender/ cafetiere/ tea towel over the top combo

I think I'm going to get one of those nifty little milk frother sticks though, just to save on washing up and mess!

I'm a convert to using cocoa butter rather than coconut. Makes it have a hint of chocolate. Really delicious. Still needs a good whizz in the hand blender though

Sounds delish Betty, where do you buy cocoa butter from please?

I think I've hit the sweet spot here: 200ml Columbian decaf, 15g unsalted butter and 15g coconut oil done in the blender and it is lush.

I know this is an old thread but any advance on the recipe?

200ml coffee
15g butter
15g coconut oil
Tiny splash double cream (optional)
Whizz up with a milk frothier or stick blender.

Oh and if you aren't used to it then start with 5g of butter and coconut oil and work your way up or the sheer amount of fat will make you queasy.

Be aware that bulletproof coffee is high calorie but nutritionally poor so you need to make sure you're getting your vitamins and minerals from plenty of veggies at other meals.

Thank you.

I know I need to ditch the milk to go low carb so this seems like a good option.

You could try coffee with double cream instead. I switched to unsweetened almond milk initially but now I just have black coffee. On the other hand coffee with milk isn't too bad from a carb point of view if it's only two or three cups per day.

I might do that as I find it very filling.

The coffee is more than 2-3 times and I like milky versions soo really think it has to go.

Has anyone ever tried bulletproof tea and is it any good?

Ninoo I sometimes have a teaspoon of coconut oil on rooibos tea. It fills you up if you're peckish and the coconut oil is moisturising on your lips!
