What is the best protein to add to coffee?

[Proteincaffe]

Tons of people are adding protein .. be it whey, soy, and now hemp ... what have you seen out there?

 

[Mr.Peaberry]

Hemp? Now there's coffee that'll give you a different kind of buzz!

You'd have to be a non-coffee-lover to add that crap. If I needed/wanted more protein, it'd be going into a separate drink.

Why would someone want to add protein to their coffee?

It would make more sense to add coffee extract or a shot of espresso to a protein shake no?

Bulletproof coffee is one of them. (they put 2tbs unsalted grass-fed butter + 2tbs of brain octane or XCT oil into hot coffee) - I have not tried it yet.
or
you can put 1/3 to 1/2 scoop of whey protein powder into their coffee before / while / after work out. Whey comes in different flavors and some of them can mix well with hot or cold coffee.

for me, I tried with cold coffee + vanilla whey that I bought form Costco few times, long time ago. basically, I wasn't drinking coffee but I was drinking coffee/vanilla flavored protein powder drink. Never tried Hemp.

however, wouldn't it be much better and easier to drink them separately? unless you really like the taste of them combined.

BTW, I forgot to mention.
Best protein to add should be Vanilla whey.
for the coffee, the best coffee for this would be just INSTANT COFFEE. (just one or two teaspoons, please)
for this, Instant coffee works the best.

Whey protein is the most popular, followed by soy for plant-based options. Hemp protein is growing in popularity due to its natural fiber and healthy fats, but it has less protein per serving compared to whey or soy. Other options include pea and rice protein.

Sometimes I add a little Ensure Max Protein shake (French Vanilla flavor) as a "creamer."

 

[Coffee_Mad_Man]

I'd never do that to coffee, that would be blasphemy.
I put protein in my porridge and it tastes better than in drink form.
Unfortunately people love sugar, so they have sucralose in almost every protein powder now... as soon as I finish the protein I will get one that is unflavored without soya (difficult to find though!)

Yeah, protein’s everywhere now—whey, soy, hemp—you name it. I tried hemp for a bit, and honestly, it’s pretty chill if you’re into plant-based stuff. My buddy swears by mixing protein with his routine after checking out a full-body calisthenics workout guide at betterme app https://betterme.world/articles/full-body-calisthenics-workout/ . Keeps him energized without feeling bulky, ya know?
