What is Proffee?
“Proffee” is a term that has been made up to refer to the mixing of both coffee and protein powder (or liquid) together.
This yummy concoction has a variety of benefits. Not only does it provide you the protein you need for before and after workouts, but it also provides a jolt of energy provided that you use espresso or regular coffee (as opposed to decaf).
Proffee for Weight Loss
Many people use proffee to help them lose weight.
How this works is that the protein shake provides additional flavor without the need for sugar-laden flavoring syrups or plain sugar often added to traditional lattes and frappuccinos.
In this way, drinking proffee may prove to help some people lose weight.

Proffee is basically made with equal parts protein shake and coffee.
Though the technique is important to get the right consistency.
Know that ratios when mixing protein and coffee often differ, depending on the taste that best suits the individual. Therefore, feel free to play around with the coffee to protein shake ratio until you reach the taste that’s best for you.
Proffee Coffee Recipe
To make protein coffee or “proffee”, you’ll need the following:
- 1 Cup of Prepared Black Coffee or Cold Brew
- 1 Cup of Prepared Protein Shake
- A Shaker Cup With Steel Ball (if using powdered protein)
- Any Additional Flavorings (cinnamon, vanilla extract, miniature chocolate chips, etc)
Making Proffee
Combine
Mix the prepared coffee and the protein shake in a ball mixer cup
Shake well
Shake vigorously until lumps or dispersed or until smooth;
Stir
If not using powdered protein, simply stir the mixture with a spoon. You can also do this step after shaking your powdered protein in.

Hot Proffee Recipe
If you wish to enjoy your proffee hot, it is best to use a shaker cup or a whisk to disperse lumps before combining your protein with the coffee.
After you’ve combined the two and have achieved a smooth consistency, go ahead and heat the proffee over very gentle heat in a saucepan until it reaches the temperature you desire.
Know that heating proffee can cause foaming and clumping because powdered protein shakes don’t always do well when heated.
If you are using a protein shake that is a liquid, however, you should be able to heat your proffee with no problem.
