Iced Café Latte Shake — Herbalife Recipe

If your morning routine involves stopping for an iced latte on the way to work, this shake is about to change everything. The Iced Café Latte shake combines Herbalife Formula 1 Café Latte with real cold brew coffee and almond milk for an intensely creamy, coffee-forward shake that tastes like a coffeeshop drink but delivers complete meal replacement nutrition.

At only 180 calories, it replaces both your breakfast and your morning coffee — without the added sugar and syrups that turn commercial iced lattes into desserts.

Ingredients

• 2 scoops (25g) Herbalife Formula 1 Café Latte
• 120ml cold brew coffee (or strongly brewed coffee, cooled)
• 150ml unsweetened almond milk
• 5–6 ice cubes
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

1. Pour the cold brew coffee and almond milk into the blender
2. Add the Formula 1 Café Latte powder
3. Add the vanilla extract if using
4. Add the ice cubes
5. Blend on high for 25–30 seconds until smooth, frothy, and well-chilled
6. Pour into a tall glass over additional ice if desired, and enjoy

• The combination of Formula 1 caffeine and cold brew coffee provides approximately 140mg of caffeine — equivalent to a standard coffeeshop latte

Tips

• Cold brew is smoother than regular iced coffee — cold brew has lower acidity and a naturally sweeter taste, which pairs better with the Formula 1 Café Latte flavor
• Make a batch of cold brew on Sunday — steep coarsely ground coffee in cold water for 12–18 hours, strain, and refrigerate; you will have enough for a week of shakes
• Use plenty of ice — this shake is meant to be very cold; generous ice makes it feel like a genuine coffeeshop experience
• Try oat milk for a creamier version — oat milk adds natural sweetness and a richer mouthfeel, though it will add approximately 30 more calories
• Skip the extra coffee if caffeine-sensitive — the Formula 1 Café Latte already contains caffeine; you can replace the cold brew with additional almond milk for a milder version

Why This Recipe Works

Many people rely on commercial iced lattes and coffeeshop drinks for their morning energy, but these drinks often contain 300–500 calories of added sugar, flavored syrups, and whipped cream while providing almost no nutritional value. This shake flips that equation entirely. The Formula 1 Café Latte — developed with input from the Herbalife Nutrition Advisory Board — delivers 18g of protein, essential vitamins, and minerals in each serving, while the cold brew coffee provides a clean caffeine boost without added sugar. Almond milk keeps the calorie count low while adding a subtle nutty creaminess. The result is a shake that genuinely tastes like an iced latte but functions as a complete, balanced meal.

This recipe is intended as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. This shake contains caffeine from both Formula 1 Café Latte and cold brew coffee. If you are sensitive to caffeine, pregnant, or nursing, consult your healthcare provider before use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular hot coffee instead of cold brew?

Yes, but you must let it cool completely before blending. Adding hot coffee to the blender with ice will melt the ice immediately and produce a watery, lukewarm shake. Brew your coffee in advance and refrigerate it, or pour it over ice to cool it rapidly before adding to the blender. Cold brew is still the best option for flavor and smoothness.

Is 140mg of caffeine too much for one serving?

For most healthy adults, moderate caffeine intake is considered to be up to 400mg per day. At 140mg, this shake falls well within that range. However, if you plan to consume other caffeinated beverages throughout the day, consider using only half the amount of cold brew or switching to decaffeinated coffee to keep your total daily caffeine intake in check.
