MINT-CHOC FRUIT COFFEE
Drink Recipe:
1 cup skimmed milk
½ cup mixed fresh or frozen fruits
1 tsp instant coffee
1 drop of peppermint extract
1 scoop chocolate protein powder
ice cubes
About the Homemade Shake:
As with all the protein drink recipes that use coffee as an ingredient, this
protein drink is great for morning consumption. Not only does it have caffeine
to wake you up but the fresh fruit will pack the drink with plenty of natural
energy to give you the get-up-and-go you need to start your day. You might also
consider this as a pre-workout shake as it shouldn't be so sickening (last thing
you want is to be doing your last set of decline bench press with your shake 'repeating'
on you). You could throw in a banana for some long-lasting energy.
If you aren't such a big fan of mint then why not try replacing the peppermint
extract with some different flavoring. You could try almond extract, vanilla extract,
cinnamon sugar, or any other flavorings for sale in you supermarket's baking section.
