Ghee in Coffee: Does Bulletproof Coffee Actually Work?

Adding a spoon of ghee to coffee, often called bulletproof coffee, makes a creamy, frothy drink that gives slow-release energy and helps you feel full. It will not magically burn fat, but as a filling morning drink it works for many people.

Why people put ghee in coffee

Blended, not just stirred, into hot coffee, ghee emulsifies into a latte-like froth. The fat slows how quickly caffeine hits, giving steadier energy, and it keeps you satisfied, which some use to delay breakfast during intermittent fasting.

How to make it

Brew a strong cup of coffee, add about one teaspoon of ghee, and blend for 20 to 30 seconds until frothy. Start small, since too much fat can feel heavy. A little cinnamon adds flavour.

The honest take

Ghee coffee is a tasty, satiating drink, not a weight-loss shortcut. It adds calories, so it works best as a replacement for a fattier breakfast, not on top of one. Use pure ghee so you are not adding blended oils.
