Just discovered cold brew coffee - awesome with protein powder!
I'm a huge coffee lover and just recently went to Superstore (Canada) and saw a promo for their brand of cold brew coffee. Tried it and I LOVE IT!! I mix it with a scoop of Syntrax Caramel Macchiato protein powder, a couple TBSP of plain Skyr or greek yogurt, dash of cinnamon and blend like crazy. My new favorite drink!!
I'm probably the last person to figure this out but still wanted to share. It's a great way for me to get in extra protein and quench my caffeine desire. *happy dance*

Cold brew is the bomb. I use some every morning in my protein shake. Like Hala said, making your own is pretty easy--just make sure you let it brew for a full 24 hrs. I don't brew mine in the fridge--I just let it sit at room temp on the counter. It's nice because it has less acid so is a bit less irritating to the stomach.
