Glass Type: Tall Glass

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces (about 240 ml) of brewed coffee, cooled
  • 1 scoop of your preferred protein powder (whey, casein, or a plant-based alternative)
  • Ice cubes (for an iced version)
  • A splash of milk or a milk alternative (optional, for creaminess)
  • Sweetener of choice (optional, to taste)

Instructions

  • Brew your coffee and allow it to cool. You can prepare this ahead of time and keep it refrigerated.
  • In a shaker bottle or blender, combine the cooled coffee, protein powder, and any optional milk or sweetener. If you're making an iced version, you can also add the ice cubes now.
  • Shake or blend until the mixture is smooth and the protein powder is fully dissolved.
  • If you didn't blend it with ice, fill a glass with ice cubes and pour the coffee protein mixture over them.
  • Serve immediately, giving a nutritious start to your day or a replenishing finish to your workout.
