5 Protein Coffee Recipes You Need to Try

Protein Coffee Recipes

But first…coffee. Whether you enjoy your cup of Joe piping hot or prefer an iced blend, the best part of waking up is a steady flow of caffeine running through your veins. But sometimes, our guilty pleasures of coffee concoctions don’t always line up with our health and fitness goals.

So, before you reach for the cream and sugar, why not jumpstart your day with a boost of not only caffeine but protein. I have some killer protein coffee recipes that will redefine breakfast and fuel your fix guilt-free, taking the term “Breakfast of Champions” to a new level.

5 Protein Coffee Recipes

1. Low-Carb Coffee

There isn’t a simpler and more inexpensive way to create a healthy coffee than by adding just two scoops of BioTRUST Low Carb Protein Blend. Now, you can have a delicious protein coffee recipe for less than $2.50. Take that, big-named coffee chains!

And with BioTRUST Low Carb, you can select from seven delicious flavors that have:

  • 24 grams of grass-fed protein from pasture-raised cows
  • Carefully cold-processed to ensure the highest quality, undenatured, bioactive low-carb protein powder
  • Each low-carb protein shake contains only four grams of net carbs
  • Features gut-friendly prebiotics and protein-digesting enzymes for stomach-friendly digestion and enhanced bioavailability
  • FREE from growth hormones, antibiotics, GMOs, pesticides, gluten, and soy
  • NO artificial sweeteners, flavors, colors, or preservatives added

Sweet tooth satisfied: Check.

Energy levels high: Check.

Please sir, can I have some more?

2. Collagen Protein Coffee

If you prefer to taste the full-bodied flavor of your coffee without altering the character at all, then why not add a scoop of our BioTRUST Ageless Multi-Collagen Protein Powder. With each scoop, you are getting five Types of Collagen to Powerfully Support:

  • Healthy skin, hair, and nails
  • Gut, joint, and bone health
  • Athletic performance, recovery, and an active lifestyle

Plus, every serving of Ageless Multi-Collagen is:

  • Loaded with 10 grams of collagen protein (per serving) including BioActive Collagen Peptides
  • A complete protein source featuring 140 mg of tryptophan
  • Tasteless, odorless, and mixes instantly WITHOUT clumps (in hot or cool liquids)

The bonus here is that you can add both BioTRUST Low Carb Protein Blend and Ageless Multi-Collagen to get ALL the protein.

Now taking one or both of these simple ingredients above and creating a healthy recipe is super simple. And you don’t need to remember venti, grande, tall, whipped, blended, half-caff, or any of that mumbo jumbo. You just have to know what flavor profiles work for YOU.
