There’s nothing better on a chilly day than a warm cup of goodness. This season, I’ve been experimenting with my chocolate and vanilla protein powders, because with just a few spices and a little creativity I found a way to turn them into some delicious hot drinks!
Plus, I love the chance to get a bonus serving of protein in my body while I’m drinking a hot Almond Mocha, or a savory Vanilla Chai! Enjoy the decadent flavors you love without the sugar and syrups you’d find in a coffee shop concoction.
