This is a bit different from some of my other short updates, but I figured I'd share it anyway.

I've been tinkering a bit with my go-to morning beverage, for a long while it was a hot (or iced) latte (at least since I met my fiance who got me really into lattes), fortunately enough we have a decent brevil espresso machine at home so its been pretty easy to make our own coffee.

As of late though I've been cutting back a bit on my whole milk intake (I think the common joke is that lattes are more of a milk beverage than a coffee beverage), and I've also been drinking more and more Core Power protein shakes (if you haven't tried one before, they're amazing - stop reading this now and go try one!)

What I've now started doing is making a "Horchata Protein Latte", which is a bit like a shaken espresso latte, but with Core Power (the vanilla 26g of protein variety) instead of traditional milk.

The recipe (if you can call it that):

Ingredients:

  • Cinnamon
  • Vanilla Core Power
  • Espresso
  • Ice

Recipe:

Take some kind of sealable container (I'm using a new weck jar), add in a bit of ground cinnamon. Pour your shot of espresso into the container, and then add ice and a splash (or as much as you like) of the Core Power. Finally seal the container and then shake for about 30 seconds or so.

That's it! It tastes a bit like Horchata (thanks to the vanilla and cinnamon), and also has some pretty good macros (26g of protein, only 6g of carbs) and tastes amazing!
