Coffee, Starbucks?

Hello beautiful people, so I love coffee. What are some suggestions for coffee at Starbucks? What are some of your own recipes for home that maybe add in your Protein Drinks? Thanks!!! and keep on losing.

I make a pot of coffee at home then put it in a carafe in the fridge to make iced coffee. Then I add fairlife skim Protein milk and splenda.

I don't like Starbucks because it's very bitter, but if you just get plain hot or iced coffee with milk and fake sure it's not too bad for you. You just don't want to add the syrups and the whipped cream and everything. They have the calorie counts available.

Thanks for the suggestion. I usually get sugar free syrups, but have not went since I had the surgery.

I don't know the calories/carbs on the sugar free syrups but they're probably fine. I know people here talk about the Jordan's syrups, so it's probably similar.

So many of those drinks have enough calories to be a meal! It's basically a milkshake lol.

I usually get a sugar-free vanilla latte made with Soy Milk.

If you don't already have it I'd suggest getting the Starbuck's app for your phone. It's nice to take your time going through the drinks and making it your own, order in advance, and be in & out picking up. Plus the app will tell you how many calories your drink has.

For home the different flavors of Premier Protein make for a nice add-in to coffee.

I am a coffee addict, I literally drink coffee all day, everyday, so this was something I had to have in life...lol

My drink at Starbucks right now is Venti Toasted vanilla Shaken Espresso, only 3 pumps Syrup and 2 extra shots.

At home, I keep Stok cold brew on hand and will mix with my Protein Powder in the AM and then I use sugar free syrups or Creamers. Coffeemate has a few good ones, like the sugar free Twix. But I really like the Silk oatmeal Cookie Oat Milk Creamer, it's just not sugar free.
