Method

  1. Brew the espresso, moka pot coffee or strong coffee, or stir the instant espresso into the hot water.

  2. Fill a large jar or shaker with a handful of ice, pour in the hot coffee and stir for about 10 seconds until it's cold. Don't seal and shake it while it's still hot.

  3. Add the protein shake (or the protein powder and milk), seal and shake hard until frothy and ice-cold. Powder needs the full time to dissolve without lumps.

  4. Strain into a tall glass filled with fresh ice and drink straight away.

Tips

  • Chill the coffee on ice before adding the protein: very hot coffee straight into protein powder can make it clump.
  • Caramel, chocolate or salted caramel shakes all work. Unflavored powder needs 1 to 2 tsp of maple syrup or vanilla syrup.
  • For dairy-free, use a plant-based shake and check its label for gluten.
