"unflavored" protein to mix with coffee?

[crazyplantlady 70]

Hello!

I posted a post about coffee a couple of weeks ago, and I'm happy to say that I am happily drinking my coffee every morning.

I mix in about half a premier Protein shake with my coffee, and drink the remaining shake, and then drink my coffee, and also get in almost half my liquid minimum for the day!

I do struggle to finish my coffee however, because the chocolate Premier Protein taste is strong at the bottom of my mug and it's kinda bitter and gross.

Adding Creamer helps, but then it's harder for me to drink so much liquid in my morning sprint out the door, and if I were to try to drink my coffee on the way, it would never happen. Trust me.

I am interested in either replacing the premier Protein Shake or using less of it in my coffee and supplementing it with some sort of Protein powder, such that I get at least 30 (more would be great!) grams of Protein every morning, as I am interested in upping my protein intake, being almost 9 weeks out of surgery, and my weight loss is starting to stall, so after reading countless posts on this site, I have determined the best thing to do is focus on increasing my protein intake and managing my liquid intake.

So does anyone have any suggestions on protein powders that I can use with coffee and Premier Protein?

One of my 'requirements' is that the coffee should taste good.

@@crazyplantlady, that's what I've done in the past too with my coffee, I've just started adding unflavored Protein Powder from genpro. It really doesn't have a taste, and next I'm going to try Unjury unflavored and chocolate. I love the unflavored cause I can add it to my Soup bowl. The only thing is with unjury the temp of drinks has to be under 140 degrees. If higher it degenerates the Protein. Hope this helps!

I use espresso in the morning and mix 2 shots with 8 oz of unsweetened almond milk and a scoop of the Unjury chocolate splendor for Breakfast. I love it! I imagine if you used coffee and unjury, it'd be pretty much the same. Just make sure your coffee is under 140F so the Protein doesn't denature and get all clumpy.

Thanks guys! I looked at both and decided to get GENEPRO. Hopefully the money didn't go to waste!

I make my coffee in my keurig. I then pour out about half of it. I put in half a scoop of max muscle vanilla Protein (15g protein) and about an ounce or so of fair life milk (about 2 G protein if I remember correctly). I can usually drink all of that. It took me a while to figure out to pour out half of the coffee cuz I never could finish it and didn't get all the protein I put in.

I put in my milk before the protein so that it cools some and the protein mixes easier.
