Notes
*If you don't have a frozen banana, use a room temp banana and then add 4-6 ice cubes to the blender
**You can also use 1 tsp instant coffee if you don't have espresso powder
***I used coconut milk from a carton (like the So Delicious kind), but canned coconut milk should work too, as long as you get a mixture of the cream and the liquid within the can (aka, not JUST the creamy part)
