"This is a refreshing coffee smoothie that is sure to impress your taste buds. Serve in individual mason jars and garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and chocolate shavings. The recipe can easily be doubled for a delicious treat to your overnight guests. Simply brew a pot of Door County Crème coffee in the evening and chill it in the refrigerator overnight. This is also a great 'on the go' breakfast for those busy mornings!"
