Hey folks!
I'm looking for some delicious tasting protein powders to use. I hate that chalky after taste. Does anyone know if there is a coffee flavored one, to use with my morning coffee? Also I heard of a protein fluff awhile back, but I can't find it anywhere. Any great powders or recipes you would be willing to share would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

    I've used vanilla or chocolate in my coffee. Designer Whey and GNC Lean 25 seem to have the most variety of flavors I've found.

    I'm currently using BSN Syntha 6 Moccachino and I really like the flavor of it. It does have a bit more sodium than I'd prefer, so this keeps me for having it everyday for breakfast.

    I haven't had it with coffee, but I really like GNC Lean 25 Peanut Butter Chocolate flavor. It really doesn't taste peanut buttery at all - more like milk chocolate. When I mix it up in almond milk with my immersion blender it tastes like a Frosty :)

    I've tried the About Time powder recently and thought it was pretty good. 100 cal per scoop. I've had strawberry and banana but have heard that all flavors are good. I just throw in a container of yogurt & some frozen fruit with it.

    I just got GNC Lean Shake 25 in rich chocolate and really like it. I made it with skim milk and it was so creamy.

    I like muscle milk chocolate (natural) and just add ice and water, sometimes I'll add PB2. I love it.

    Tera's Whey has a coffee flavor. I haven't tried that one but the bourbon vanilla is great

    Stick with Whey vs Casein if you don't want the chalky taste...but trust me, it's an acquired taste, if you keep drinking it, you will almost grow to like it...almost. :wink:

    I use strawberry whey for my coffee, and yes, I DO put in a small amount of Casein (Choc) in my coffee as well.

    They make a coffee flavor, but I used to mix vanilla with coffee and milk.

    Just make whatever flavor you find edible into a cold smoothie. I usually just make one, throw it in the freezer and in 30 minutes... walah... "almost a smoothie". Or a real one with fruit works too

    I like mixing the Trutein Cinnabun one with Cold Coffee and Matcha Green tea powder instead of milk and that is really really good. Otherwise I know its not necessarily a coffee flavor but I like the Dymatize Elite XT Choc Fudge one mixed with Matcha Green Tea Powder,Seedless Cherries, and Lactose Free Milk.

    I drink Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard - Extreme Milk Chocolate. It tastes really good mixed with water and I bet it would be great with coffee.

    Check out Bodylogix. They make Whey protein powders from grass fed cows that are GMO and antibiotic free. I use their Vanilla flavored one with some 2% milk and it's delicious!
