protein ice coffee....yum
I needed to get more protein in so I went to GNC and bought the unflavored whey protein (21 g) and came home and put a scoop in my decaf ice coffe with 2 splenda. It gives it a creamy flavor and you don't need to add anything else. I have a Krueig so I just put it all in my shaker bottle, brew over ice, and shake. Delicious and it is refreshing to have ice coffee.
For a real treat I have been making protein Carmelizer's. I became addicted to them at Dutch Brother's but they are $4 for a large without protein. I would get the sugar free, non fat, decaf Carmelizer, also known as the "why bother".
I use 2 tablespoons sugar free carmel sauce, 2 tablespoons sugar free chocolate sauce, 8 oz fat free milk and 2 oz decaf coffee (the original calls for espresso but I don't have any decaf espresso powder).
I add a scoop of chocolate whey isolate and some ice and blend it up. It is every bit as good as the real thing with all the protein.

I LOVE making mocha protein ice cream. For quite a while, I was eating some every night. It really helped me get my protein in.
