Can I use Whey Protein powders - specifically Pure Protein - in a hot drink? I use a soy powder in my coffee in the mornings but would like to use the Pure Protein powders I have. Need to change up the flavors and such for my morning drink.

    I tried to make protein hot chocolate once mixing a scoop of protein in water out of the kettle - but it turned into a lump :( However, my fiance regularly mixes together protein in water with freshly brewed espresso

    I'd like to know if anyone has had any success with this as well. Maybe past a certain temperature it's a no go?

    I've had some success mixing the powder with 1/2 cup of cold water and then slowly adding hot water while stirring. It gets pretty...warm, hehe. You could also try the reverse-- dissolve the powder in some milk/water and slowly add to warm coffee.
