Perfect Hot Protein! Product Review
A few weeks ago Celadon posted a product review on the Living After WLS site. It was on the Mr Coffee hot beverage maker, Cafe Motion. I had to go out and try it and I'm so glad I did! Please read her review.

I'm totally addicted to *$s skinny mochas. The Cafe Motion allows you make hot protein that comes really close. I stayed close to Celadon's recipe and used 1 scoop chocolate protein, 1 c water, 1 t Cremora, 1 t instant expresso and chocolate Toriani SF syrup. So yummy!
Word of warning though-- don't try it with milk! For some reason milk causes the protein to clump.
THANK YOU CELADON!

Here's another idea, if you don't mind....I'll have to try your chocolate too!
Every morning I make a frothy soy vanilla latte with the Cuisinart Quick Prep (Pic in link below). It's about the same price as that coffee pot thing. A little more.
I make a regular pot of coffee....Mix about 1/2 C soy milk with 2 oz of vanilla protein...in an extra large coffee mug...Whizz with the quick prep...(It's so powerful if you don't hold the cup it will spin the cup out of control!) Then add the hot coffee and give a quick blend and it is perfectly sweetened, amazingly frothy down to the last drop and not a single lump anywhere....I use cold or day old coffee too...
Rinse under the sink and throw in a kitchen drawer! (I leave mine in the dish drain since I use it so often...I mix all my protein drinks, hot and cold with this powerful little easy to clean tool...Instant coffee is even faster and easier because you nuke the water or milk for a minute in a cup....Whizz your protein in a little cool liquid and then add and mix the hot liquid....SO EASY and little clean up.
