Good Morning. Protein Coffee/Tea Recipes?
Funny that you mention tea. We had the same convo on the DS FB group yesterday. Here's Amanda's recipe.
I'm not using the mixed stuff. I use the tea bags and sweeten it myself. I put my own creamer in it and my own sugar substitutes. I did make some today that was super yummy. I made pre-made sugar-free spiced apple cider and mixed it with the chai (Twining's decaf) tea bags, a cinnamon stick, some vanilla protein shake, some sugar free whip cream, heavy cream, and splenda. I enjoyed it!
And yes chai is spiced. Sometimes I like it extra spiced and add a little bag of cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger and let it steep with the teabag!****
***
So, if we were to make it WLS for all surgery types: Make a protein slurry of vanilla protein powder and pour steeped hot chai tea over top and stir (double the tea bags or let it steep longer for extra strong). (Add your own blends of extra chai spices to taste if you like...extra cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamon, cloves, ginger, etc) Twining's has ultra spiced chai tea bags in decaf and Trader Joe's also has a chai tea in bags.

I like lemon tea protein with a peach mango crystal light, or a peach tea crystal light, or a cran peach crystal light. I also like caribean cooler protein with lemon tea crystal light and peach tea crystal light. I mix them with a spoon in about a cup of water, add ice and a lot more water in a huge tumbler.

I love peach. Have you seen South Beach mango packets anywhere? I really like that because it is very mild but I can't find it anywhere. I think I'll look online right now while I'm thinking about it.

Here's a cocoa mix for you Roz.
2. Scoops Dutch Chocolate Isopure powder (50 gms) in blender bottle with six ounces of water.
Shake and pour into a 20 oz mug. Fill the up most of the way full and add a plush of half and half. Add any flavors like mint, caramel etc that you might like. I used to use Unsweetened Almond Breeze and still use 4 oz if I have it in the house. If I do that, I omit the half and half.
I can make it with just one scoop of protein if it's not my breakfast drink.
Heat 30 seconds, stir, repeat 2x. Squirt on a little Lite Whipping Cream.
Ive also tried the cocoa with Cookies and Cream protein powder and liked it too!
If I liked sweet coffee I would make protein coffee but I just can't manage even a sip of sweet offer.
I have some cold Chai tea that I brewed. I thought I might try making it with a scoop of vanilla protein.

I make Iced coffee this time of year and hot coffee in the winter... Right now I am doing the following:
1 scoop nectar capp, instant cofee, ice, s/f hazelnut or French vanilla creamer, soy van. light mil**** and water with a pump of s/f davinci or torini flavoring. I don't measure anymore, but I add a lot of water before the creamer and milk.
In the winter I do the same but instead of instant coffee, I use my keurig!

My DH makes a double size protein shake (2 cups skim milk, 2 scoops powder) either chocolate or vanilla. Then, since we have large coffee mugs and drink 2 cups each, we pour 1/2 cup shake in the cup, 2 tbsp sf flavor syrup, fill the rest with coffee. Then we stir, heat for about 30 seconds and stir again. We each end up with the protein of a single shake and we get out morning coffee too. I am going to try coffee ice cubes in iced decaf coffee for an after work treat.
Personally, I am not a big coffee drinker - but love the fake cappacino you get from the machines. As it has way too much sugar, this is what I have for breakfast every morning.
8 oz water
sugar free vanilla caramel creamer powder, probably about 2 tablespoons
3/4 scoop vanilla protein powder
1 and 1/2 scoops click, I use the vanilla latte
I put on the magic bullet for about 30 seconds, pour into a latte mug and heat for a minute and a half.
I also put my miralax in there. Also it foams up when heated, so the latte mug (wide rim) works really well.
