Does anyone add protein powder to your coffee? If you do..how is it and what brand do you use. Thanks

    Yes! I mix half a scoop of Myofusion cinnamon roll with 1/2 cup of almond milk and mix it with my coffee using the bullet. It's yummy!

    No, but I add coffee to my protein powder. I use a Starbucks via in two scoops of valilla wheybolic 60 from GNC. I use it with either hood calorie countdown, skim milk or almond unsweetened vanilla. Either way, it is delicious!

    yes. I use Champion Whey Stack Protein-chocolate. Makes a nice mocha coffee. I drink it every am.

    Since I figured out this combination of protein + coffee, it's been my staple everyday since I take a coffee to work in a thermos. I usually add a few tablespoons of mine to the hot coffee, along with my creamer. My favorite kind is by All Pro Science, the Complete Grass Fed whey protein. (the vanilla or chocolate flavor is good)

    I've used cooled drip coffee to make my Body By Vi shakes, very tasty. It stirs into warm drinks too, my friend adds the Body By Vi to her kids hot cocoa just to give them extra nutrition. So I bet it work in coffee, I think I'll try that in the morning!

    I've done it before with chocolate flavored Body Fortress and it tasted great. It was like a lil mocha :-)

    Thanks everyone. My thought is that the protein would counteract any insulin spike caused by the caffeine.

    must use a blender!

    I've yet to find a protein powder that mixes nicely into hot coffee without using my magic bullet! I use coffee as the base for my protein shakes most mornings though :)


    must go find this cinnamon roll one though, sounds delish!

    officially trying this...well once I get through my current strawberry protein, I don't think that would be good with coffee

    Yes, one scoop chocolate with 4 oz skim milk - shake well, then add to 12oz coffee. Very good!! (GNC Pro Performance AMP, but I'm not married to it...)

    For a Mocha Frap I use one scoop of chocolate protein powder, 1 cup of non-fat milk, 2 spoonfuls of instant coffee and ice in blender. I also add no sugar flavorings sometimes like salted carmel or hazelnut. It's amazing!

    I dont mix my protein with coffee as anything milk in my coffee is wrong on every level. But I have mixed it in with other things and I found a protein that is fruit flavored that I mix with my juice - works best with OJ.

    Have to hunt down this cinnamon roll protein - would be great mixed into a lot of things. Im imagining it in with my oatmeal since I already put cinnamon in it the extra protein would be awesome

    Coffee + protein sounds amazing. I have mocha cappuccino ON whey- that'd probably work awesome in coffee.... Question though- does it mix if you just put it in the coffee and stir it? Or do you need a blender or something of the sort?

    I've actually thought about doing this....I was afraid my stomach wouldn't be able to handle it. Plus I can be kind of a coffee snob, that first cup in the morning has to be perfect :drinker: But I maybe I should give this a try!
