The Best Protein Coffee

Serves: 1
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Only three ingredients and you'll feel like you're having an indulgent vanilla latte, but without the sugar!

Ingredients
 

Instructions

  • Skip this step if you're starting with pre-made espresso shots. Grind the coffee beans until it forms a fine powder similar to table salt. Follow your espresso machine's directions and make a double shot.
  • Pour the milk in a pot over medium heat. Warm to your desired coffee temperature, then turn off the heat and add the protein powder. Whisk with the milk frother until protein has dissolved.
  • Pour the espresso shot into a coffee mug. Add the milk mixture. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

Make sure not to overheat the milk. It should never boil, just get warm enough to drink as a latte. Heating it too hot can scald the milk and lead to clumpy protein powder.
