Coffee Protein Shake

February 27, 2020 by Jennings Leave a Comment

I’m not gonna lie… I’m kind of skeptical about this one from the get-go. But I drink protein shakes almost daily, and I usually make them exactly the same. Something to add to my rotation would be nice. So… we’ll see!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups ice
  • 3/4 cup milk (regular, almond, soy, etc)
  • 1 cup cold coffee
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1 scoop protein powder (we use whey protein isolate which has no flavor)

Add everything to a blender or bullet and process til smooth.

RP Servings: 1

RATING: 1

Yeah, this was a mistake. Coffee and banana just don’t go together. I wish I had a photo of my husband’s face when he tasted it — priceless! I just couldn’t drink it. If you are determined to make it, here are my suggestions:

  • Don’t add ice. It’s just watery and flavorless.
  • Use a flavored protein powder, preferably a good chocolate one like Shakeology.
  • Add more coffee. You can freeze coffee in ice cube trays so you can have more flavor and still a thick consistency.
