...for new protein coffees, teas and shakes. This morning I made pumpkin spice protein coffee lattes. Yum!  I also did a quick inventory of my SF syrups and I have a peppermint just begging to be part of a peppermint protein coffee mocha latte and some Barlean's Pina Colada omega 3 swirl to go into a chocolate or strawberry shake.  Protein chai tea latte with a little pumpkin spice...sounds good. :)  Do you have some concoctions you want to try this fall?

Man, you are way ahead of me.  I just want my backordered for a month, finally in route, mint cookie to get here.  I am interested in what folks have in mind because there is a direct corralations to my internal temp and the temp of what I am drinking, which will limit my cold drinks for the winter.  I did make some pumpkin coffee and shakes last year with real pumpkin and they were pretty tasty. 

Raining here again.  I drove 7 hrs yesterday back and forth to pick up Chili's new cart and can't drive today.  Oh well, after missing work all day yesterday, I have plenty to do here.  Enjoy your day, rain or shine everyone.

I prefer hot cocoa once the weather turns...

We have had rain since yesterday morning...at times it's come down hard but it hasn't let up.

Our puppies are stuck on the side porch (we do leave the doggy door open but they think they will melt if in the rain) or inside...the cats are upset that the puppies are not OUTSIDE!

Afternoon! Me? I wi**** was Spring. I would love to skip Winter all together. I will, however, make me some hot protein chocolate. Hmmmm doesn't sound bad for right now. See what you caused? LOL

It's a gloomy, rainy day. I've just been doing the normal barn chores and laundry. Getting geared up to get the girls so I can take our 9 yo to PT.

I wish I liked coffee. You make them sound so good! I drink NSA Hot Chocolate in the winter with my Mint Cookie or Chocolate. That's the limit of my creativity.

I need step by step directions on how to make a nice creamy milkshake. I have a bullet but I haven't been successful at making milk shakes.

Ok Roz, here is how I make mine and I love them.

In my magic bullet glass I put about 1/2 cup of Hood Calorie Countdown Milk(or whatever you drink)
1 scoop of chocolate truffle protein(or whatever kind you want)
I put the lid on it and shake it a couple of times.  Sometimes I squirt a little fat free whip cream in it to make it creamier
Take the lid off and add some crushed ice about 1/2 - 3/4 cup
Put the lid back on and blend until almost smooth.
I add some fat free whip cream on top and it is like a real treat!!

 Good afternoon,
I was just wondering if most of you that drink protein coffee drink it hot or cold? I love coffee strong black and hot, I could just never get use to ice coffee for some reason so am hoping its as good hot as you all make it sound.

Rain is headed in my direction and I'm also not looking forward to winter and wish we could just jump over it for one year! Have a nice day all.

We basically didn't have winter here last year.  I'm hoping for the same again.

If you like coffee black, you may not like protein coffee.  I guess you could try unflavored protein in it.  But most of us who drink protien coffee use the protein like someone would use a flavored creamer.  I do like it iced also but prefer it hot, with vanilla, chocolate, chocolate carmel or mint cookie protein in it.

I used the Chocolate Truffle Protein last year and added some of the Peppermint sf syrup in my decaf coffee and it was pretty good.  I might have that again some this winter.

We are having our audit today - so far so good!!  Back to work now...
