Ingredients

Scale

Whipped Coffee Mixture

2 Tbsp Instant Coffee
2 Tbsp Vanilla Protein Powder (11g, about ⅓ scoop)
2 Tbsp Boiling Water

Drink

1 cup Milk (Almond milk recommended)
1 cup Ice Cubes

Instructions

Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, add the instant coffee, vanilla protein powder, and boiling water together. Ensure the protein powder is well measured for the perfect balance of flavor and nutrition.
Whip the Mixture: Using a hand mixer, stand mixer, or milk frother, whip the mixture on high speed for about 3-4 minutes. Scrape down the sides with a spatula occasionally to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated and a thick, frothy texture is achieved.
Prepare the Glass: Fill a glass with 1 cup of ice cubes to chill the drink perfectly.
Add Milk: Pour 1 cup of your preferred milk, such as almond milk, over the ice cubes in the glass.
Top with Whipped Coffee: Spoon the fluffy whipped coffee mixture on top of the milk. Stir gently with a spoon or straw to blend before enjoying your creamy, protein-packed iced coffee.

Notes

Use instant coffee for best whipping results; brewed coffee won’t whip properly.
Vanilla protein powder adds flavor and nutrition; feel free to use your favorite protein powder flavor.
Almond milk is recommended for a dairy-free option, but any milk can be used.
Adjust sweetness by adding sweetener to the whipped coffee mixture if desired.
Serve immediately for best texture as the whipped layer may deflate over time.
