A smooth, slightly sweet mocha cold brew coffee drink with chocolate protein powder and oat milk, perfect for a quick energizing breakfast or post-workout treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) cold brew coffee
  • 1 scoop (about 30 g) chocolate protein powder
  • 3/4 cup (180 ml) oat milk
  • 1/2 cup (about 100 g) ice cubes
  • 12 teaspoons natural sweetener (optional, e.g., maple syrup, agave, or honey)
  • 1/2 teaspoon instant espresso powder (optional)
  • Pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Pour 1 cup (240 ml) of cold brew coffee into your blender or shaker bottle. Use a well-chilled cold brew for best taste.
  2. Add 1 heaping scoop (about 30 grams) of chocolate protein powder. If using, add 1/2 teaspoon instant espresso powder for extra caffeine.
  3. Pour in 3/4 cup (180 ml) of oat milk. For creamier texture, use barista-style oat milk.
  4. Add 1/2 cup (about 100 grams) of ice cubes to keep the drink chilled without diluting flavor.
  5. Add 1-2 teaspoons of natural sweetener if you prefer a sweeter mocha.
  6. Blend on medium-high for 30 seconds until frothy and smooth, or shake vigorously in a shaker bottle for about 45 seconds.
  7. Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder on top for extra warmth and chocolate notes.
  8. Serve immediately in your favorite glass or travel mug.

Notes

If protein powder clumps, blend oat milk and protein powder first before adding cold brew. Use barista-style oat milk for creamier texture. Adjust sweetness to taste. For stronger coffee flavor, use double-strength cold brew or add extra 1/4 cup (60 ml) cold brew. Avoid over-icing to prevent dilution. Store leftovers in fridge up to 24 hours but texture will diminish.
