High-fat coffee is one of the easiest ways to upgrade your morning routine. These rich, creamy blends combine high-quality brewed coffee with nourishing fats like grass-fed ghee and MCT oil for a smooth, satisfying cup that does more than just wake you up.
It might feel unconventional to add butter and MCT oil to your coffee at first—but once you try it, the benefits are hard to ignore. You get steady, feel-good energy, fewer cravings, and a bold, delicious flavor that keeps you coming back.
Whether you sip it alongside breakfast or enjoy it as a stand-alone start to your day, high-fat coffee is a powerful way to fuel both your focus and your body.
And as always, quality matters. While some recipes call for heavy cream or conventional butter, we prefer using ingredients like grass-fed ghee and MCT oil for a cleaner, gentler experience—especially if you’re sensitive to dairy.
Hot or iced, blended or frozen, these coffee recipes are packed with healthy fats and crafted to help you feel your best—one cup at a time.
