Ok. I buy way too many lattes from Starbucks, with my scoop of protein. So, for the first time I decided to try it at home. The scoop, i'm assuming is really huge, which is why my coffee turned into a shake, and tasted horrible. 

How much, and how do you make yours? I have vanilla whey powder from Costco.

I got it from iWin direct. You can order samples for free just shipping. It was one of my samples. I will definetly be ordering it again. The peanut butter chocolate was good but the aditives in it are not ones I tolerate well.

Here's one that I have saved in my master "tips and tricks" file that Boogyshoes posted awhile back - she said that it turns out pretty smoothly!

§  Home version:
- Pour ~ 1/3 to 1/2 cup milk into a LARGE coffee cup.     
- Nuke for 20 seconds, or until just luke warm, not hot.
- Add protein powder and stir with a for****il blended.   Let sit for ~ 5 minutes (this seems to help with the dissolving)
- Add hot coffee or chai tea to this mixture and stir well.   
- Enjoy

Work version:
- Pour ~1/3  to 1/2 cup milk into Contigo travel mug
- Add 1 scoop protein powder
- Stir with fork (this helps keep protein chunks from getting all jammed in the lid because they are a pain in the ass to get out)
- Take to work (or just let it sit for 5 minutes and move to next step)
- Add hot coffee or chai tea to 1/2 inch from the top.
- Put on lid and shake well
- Put napkin over mouth hole and open pointing away release pressure
