Protein coffee
DS on 06/14/12
I love my tim hortons coffee - so lately I have been adding beneprotein to it one scoop, today I tried two scoops and it never made a diference in taste at all. I usually get a medium coffee 2 cream and 1 sugar. If you let the coffee cool a little 4 or 5 mins then the protein powder mixes better totally dissolves. I think I will try 3 scoops next time. that would be 21 grams of protein in 1 cup of coffee. cool
Thanks for the great idea! I was sitting here with a lukewarm half-cup (a large mug) of coffee and an unopened container of Cookies & Cream protein powder (Six Star brand) just waiting in my kitchen. I mixed in about half a scoop, one spoonful at a time, It mixed in nicely with a spoon without clumping until the last spoonful. I drink my coffee black. This really didn't change the taste a lot, but it's good. I know I'm not getting in enough protein, so this will be a way to increase it easily. I also really don't like drinking protein shakes. This is much better.
