Friday Morning Coffee

I am going to make some coffee this morning but would like to add some protein to it.  Any suggestions so it is not clumpy?  Really need to start getting my protein in every day.  Thanks!!!

There are experts on that subject here.  I, for one, am not.  I've only been able to make it work once.  Every other time, it was like cement on the bottom of my cup.  So, hopefully, someone will jump in and give your their secrets!  Tina

Morning all,

Protien coffee, I use Any Whey non flavored.  I have a shaker cup from GNC and I mix my protien with milk and then add to my coffee.  I have never had a problem with it being lumpy or cement like at the bottom.  It is like it is not even there.  I also use Muscle Milk lite when I want a mocha, it doesn't mix as well and has some sludge at the bottom, but not bad if you drink it quickly.

My other morning favorite to get my protien is Designer Whey, they make an orange Mango and Pomegranate Fruit that mix with water, and are not really overwhelmingly sweet. 

If I don't start my day out with about 20 grams of protien, I don't seem to be able to get it in.

Hope this helps

TGIF all!!
Ok, the trick with adding protein powder to coffee is this: Make sure it isnt too hot.  If too hot will clump big time and looks nasty.  I add half and half and it works perfectly.
I am in Mt Pleasant today helping Stac move and pack. Gonna be a long day, but nice getting away.
I miss my doggie...oh and hubby too.

Have a great weekend all

Thanks for the help.  What ratio do you use?  I scoop of protein powder to how much half and half?

Shannon and Stacey- Hope the rain holds off while you move.  At least it is a tad bit cooler today.  Where are you moving too? 

Hope everyone is having a great day!!!

Kelly-
I dont measure the half and half-just add enough to make the coffee a lighter brown.  I use 1 scoop of anywhey flavorless to mine.  Can't even tell it is in there.  Oh a nd dont reheat your coffee in microwave with protein powder in it.  Turns into cement and looks nasty!  It also explodes all overmicrowave....good times

I think beneprotein will work too. I get it from Walgreens.

Hi Kelly, When I need my caffiene fix I make a protein shake (usually chocolate) and then throw in a tablespoon of instant coffee. This is a nice cold alternative to warm coffee on those hot muggy mornings.

That is a great idea.  I will have to try that.

Hi Kelly,
How is it going! Glad to see you out here. Hey give me a call or look me up on chat. Have somethiings to bonce off you for our support group in alma.
