The Keto Bulletproof Coffee is a coffee that I found while following the keto diet. Though it may sound ridiculous, keto enthusiasts get drawn to it. The bulletproof coffee is a lifesaver for people who want to start their day with a bang. It’s like a shot of energy that sets the ball rolling for the body, for the first half of the day or more.
There are many versions of it on the Internet. Please remember that we Indians have a unique metabolism, which cannot adapt to excessive fat and high-protein diets easily. So we really cannot adapt to the original version, which suggests grass-fed butter and an MCT (medium-chain triglycerides) rich oil.
Another glitch is that finding an original ingredient like grass-fed butter is not available in India. In its place, I might suggest white butter, commonly made in Indian homes. It combines rather well, and I’ve tried it a few times.
However, I can share my Indianized version with you, which is delicious. You will need just three ingredients for it.

Notes
What does Keto bulletproof coffee do?
When you load your body with fat and calories, first thing in the morning, you are sending it a message to start the process of using fat for energy all day. Hence, it aids the state of ketosis. And if you don’t know what that means click here please. Your mind will get alert and your body will feel charged up for a long time. In other words, it can be used as a replacement for breakfast. I can vouch for its utility in a Keto diet, and its high performance in getting me charged for the day. But let me be honest, I do not skip breakfast with it, as I am not adding butter to my coffee, which the original recipe requires. A cup of bulletproof coffee has 300 to 450 calories, depending on the quantity. On the whole, the coffee is a creamy concoction that manages to satisfy your soul and keeps you satiated for a long time. Try it, at least once...Coconut oil can be substituted with ghee, but I haven’t tried it, so I can’t comment on the flavor. The Patanjali oil has no artificial smell or essence, and it blends very nicely with any Indian coffee brand. You can also add some butter to it; it’s entirely up to you.
The final result should resemble an oil slick on top of a dark murk. It has a unique nutty flavor due to the oil. This enigmatic experimentation slides down without any effort, lubricating your insides. You will awaken with a start. Many caffeine users will like bulletproof coffee, which is classified as a breakfast beverage. For those of you who can’t take the smell of coconut oil, add your favorite essence to it.
Another handy tip I would like to give you is to order yourself a hand blender, the one designed for a single cup. When the coffee is ready, use it in the blender, and coffee gets a makeover. The oil and coffee combine to make a creamy froth on the top, which is delicious.
Dave Osprey, a self-described biohacker, is credited for introducing coffee to the Western world. But, Indians have been having their version of it for centuries. Just so you know, Buddhist monks have been drinking tea flavored with yak butter for centuries.
