What Is Proffee?
Protein is an important macronutrient that helps to build muscle, repair tissue, and produce enzymes and hormones. Coffee is a great source of antioxidants and has been shown to improve mental focus and alertness. Proffee is a delicious, nutritious way to start your day or power through your afternoon slump.
It is a relatively new coffee drink made by mixing coffee with a protein shake, meaning you can fuel yourself with caffeine and protein simultaneously. This drink is becoming increasingly popular as people learn about its benefits and how easy it is to make.
Not only is proffee a great way to get your caffeine fix, but it’s also a nutritious and filling drink that can be enjoyed any time of day.
So how do you make proffee? Keep reading for our detailed recipe!
What Is The Best Protein To Use?
There are many different types of ready-to-drink protein shakes and protein powders on the market, so it can be tricky to choose the right one for your proffee. The pre-made shakes are more commonly used, but you can also use the protein powder of your choice.
As for the flavor of your protein, that’s entirely up to you. After all, you’re making this drink for yourself. You may want to add some sort of sweetener to your coffee drink if you’re using unflavored protein.
The vanilla bean organic vegan protein by Orgain is an excellent choice if you’re looking for a good, vegan protein with vanilla flavor. I use it in this recipe instead of whey protein, and it works great.
I’m keeping it simple for this recipe and using the Vanilla Premier Protein Shake.
What Is The Best Coffee To Use?
Again, there are many different types and brands of coffee out there. It really depends on your personal preference. I like to use a dark roast coffee for my proffee, but you can use whatever type of coffee you like.
For this recipe, I’m using the Starbucks Pike Place Roast. It’s a medium roast coffee that has a rich and bold flavor.
As for the brewing method, espresso is more commonly used, but you can use whatever you choose. Any of the following brew methods would work:
How to Make Proffee Recipe
Ingredients:
- ½ cup strong brewed coffee or two shots of espresso
- ½ cup Vanilla Premier Protein Shake
- Ice (optional) Tip: Use coffee ice cubes to add even more coffee flavor
- Flavored syrup (optional)
Step By Step Instructions:
Step One: Brew your coffee or make espresso according to your chosen method. If using a French Press, heat water to just below boiling and let steep for four minutes. For an Aeropress, heat water to just below boiling and let steep for one minute. If using a Moka Pot, heat water to just below boiling and let steep for three minutes. If making cold brew, soak coffee grounds in room-temperature water for 12 hours.
Step Two: Pour coffee or espresso into a shaker cup or blender. Add protein shake and mix until well blended.
Step Three: Pour your proffee into a cup filled with ice and enjoy!
Optional Add-ins and Alternatives
If you want to add a little something extra to your proffee, try adding a pump or two of flavored syrup. Chocolate, caramel, and hazelnut are all great choices. You could also add a dollop of whipped cream on top.
If you’re looking for a non-coffee alternative, try making proffee with tea! Just brew a cup of your favorite tea and add protein powder or a pre-made protein shake. Mix until well blended and enjoy.
