I cannot tolerate hot coffee in the summertime, and in the wintertime, I drink out of a big ceramic mug, and the mug turns the coffee cold fast, so I brew my coffee the night before and when its summerytime, I put it in the fridger, but when its winter I just leave it on the counter.
I have these little 8 ounce Ball freezer jars, and when I get my "tomorrow food" together in the evenings, I put 1 scoop in each of my little 4 Ball jars and have it on the counter with my protein scoops in it. So when its morning coffee time, I just put some coffee in the Ball jar, jiggle it around until its liquid, then pour in cup, then pour coffee into it.
When its winter, I do the same, except, I scoop a little coffee from the nuked coffee into my protein liquid concentrate (to temper it, like you do when you put eggs into a warm thing you are cooking) and then pour all of that into my coffee cup! Works like a sharm!!
Then when its not coffee time, I just take my little Ball container, open, put a few oz of water in, shake it and chug it. No point in breaking out the bullet if its just for a shot of protein supplement a half hour before Real Food (my favorite dish! :} )
Isn't 4 scoops of powder a lot of calories? From the website, I see that the toffee stuff has 130 calories per scoop!! If I get 520 calories from powder, that leaves me so little for real food!

And YES, it is a LOT of calories, which is why building up muscle has served me well, because you see 500 of my freaking calories a day are non negotiable drinks, which do NOT touch my hunger. I need F U D for my hunger, but I need 3 to 4 shakes a day for nearly decent protein leves.
:} Zall I am saying!
