Protein coffee is a popular way to utilize protein powder in coffee drinks<\/a>. Here’s how to try this trend. <\/em><\/p>\n Ever wonder, “Can you put protein powder<\/a> in coffee?”☕️<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Yes, you can, and it’s such a smart and yummy way to hit your protein goals while staying caffeinated! I have made my iced coffees this way for a while, and today I’m sharing not only my iced proffee recipe, but also a hot variation – and both use only three ingredients you’re likely to already have on hand if you’re a coffee drinker.<\/p>\n It’s exactly what it sounds like: a high-protein drink made by combining your favorite protein powder in coffee. It’s often paired with milk or a milk alternative for creaminess and flavor. Protein coffee is perfect as a pre-workout, post-workout, or mid-afternoon pick-me-up.<\/p>\n Hip Tip:<\/strong> Opting to use your favorite protein powder<\/a> plus milk will typically be less expensive than using premade protein shakes<\/a>. The cost per gram of protein with powder is around $0.04–$0.08, and with premade shakes is $0.10–$0.20.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n yield: 1 SERVINGS<\/span><\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\tprep time: 5 MINUTES<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\ttotal time: 5 MINUTES<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Here's how to easily blend up a protein coffee with just a few easy ingredients!<\/i><\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t1<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n For Hot Protein Coffee:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Brew espresso. In a separate container, warm milk in the microwave or on the stove. Blend the protein powder and the milk using a frother<\/a>.\u00a0A blender or blender cup would also work.\u00a0<\/em>Add the milk mixture to the coffee and blend again. Enjoy!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n For Iced Protein Coffee:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Brew espresso and let it cool. Blend the milk and protein powder using a frother. Add ice cubes to a cup and pour the espress and milk mixture over the ice. Mix with a straw and enjoy!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n *Nutritional values will vary greatly with whichever milk and protein powder you opt for.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tBrought to you by Hip2Save.<\/i><\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n I have to admit that sometimes when I’m in a hurry, I simply combine a Fairlife chocolate shake from Costco with Nescafe espresso powder<\/a>. Using the handheld frother is easy to blend the two products, or adding ice to a blender for a frozen mocha frappuccino result, makes it over the top!<\/p>\n Let us know in the comments how you make protein coffee so we can all get ideas!<\/p>\n “I don’t typically make protein coffee for myself, but I do make collagen<\/a> hot coffee! Just a scoop straight into my coffee in the morning – it looks chunky at first, but there’s no smell or flavor, and it dissolves fast.<\/em><\/p>\n I have also made protein coffee using Orgain protein powder<\/a>. Iced is much easier to blend! The recipe I followed suggested shaking the protein powder in a shaker with milk first, and that’s worth the extra step!” – Chelsey<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n I make hot protein coffee pretty much every single day! I use Nescafe Gold Blonde instant espresso<\/a> and pair it with a Premier Protein Cafe Late shake<\/a> or a Jocko Molk protein shake<\/a> and hazelnut creamer (any one I have on hand) – just a tiny bit for added flavor. If I have my collagen on hand, I’ll also add that into the mix. – Krystal <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n
