I was so cold last night that I wanted something hot to drink to warm me up. What is your favorite decaffeinated hot beverage? I haven't had caffeine yet even though I know we can. coffee, hot chocolate or tea suggestions?

ProtiDiet protein hot chocolate, Harney & Sons decaf hot cinnamon spice tea, Herb infusions like mint, camomile, etc. are my favorites right now.

Peppermint tea with a splash of lemon. Sometimes I even add a bit of unflavored protein powder to it.

Hot "Fairlife" reduced fat milk. Two minutes in the microwave. Protein 13g, Carbs 6, Calories 120.

cold night -something hot to drink to warm me up

@@jenlovestim

question above is timely/funny to me

i was at GNC a few days ago

picked up 3 cases of GNC Total Lean shake 25 gr protein!!

(swiss chocolate)

(buy one case, other 1/2 price!!) too good to pass up

salesperson suggested i microwave the shake

nuked, stirred, nuked etc for total of 2 minutes

yum yum yum

"warmth"/hot keeps my little tummy happy for a long time

proudgrammy I really like the GNC total lean chocolate shakes cold...I never thought to heat them up. Thanks for the tip! I don't like the bariatric hot cocoa's I have tried...they taste "fake". As for me and hot bev's I like decaf hazelnut coffee. It's my morning indulgence.

I found a blueberry tea at Wholefoods that I had been drinking on ice for a few weeks when I decided to nuke it and had a little Splenda. It was pretty good and Country Peach from Celestial Seasonings is good warmed with a splash of cream!

@@_Kate_ Where you do the protein latte?

If you have a teavanna near you they have amazing decaffeinated loose leaf teas that you buy by the ounce. I have a chai and chamomile blend that I drink in the winter time

^{Protein'd Chai}

^{Nestea instant tea, (decaf if you like)}

^{vanilla Protein powder}

^ginger

^cinnamon

^{ground cloves}

^{You can use Water or milk or a combo of the 2}

^{Heat you liquid without the whey in it or it will clump}

^{You may have to experiment with how hot the liquid can be, (I recommend less than boiling) or it may cook your whey - blech!}

^{Toss in a ball shaker and shake once, then butp, twice the burp, rinse and repeat until you get it mixed well. Hot liquids + whey in the shaker can be volitile if you don't burp them so don't skip that part!}

^{Don't make any more than you can drink in a sitting, because you'll not want to put this in the microwave and warm it up. Again, chunks, yuk!}

^{Pour in a mug (I use a go-cup thermos to retain the heat) and enjoy a spicy, foamy creamy high protein treat!}

^{You can do the same with coffee. I do a protein'd latte every morning!}

^{Good luck!}

I like making coffee and hot chocolate using vanilla protein powder or even RTD instead of cream

From a company called MyProtein (UK based).

this time of year there is nothing like some hot cider

I also love some thai tea either hot or iced

Ive been addicted to a coffee mix. The brand is Jarrah and has different flavours French vanilla, smooth french, Brazil, cinnamon and some others. They are delicious and 98% fat free, 2.7 sugar even some protein.

@Engteacher. OMG, I'm obsessed with fat free Fairlife milk. I drink 2 cups almost every night. I make it hot with organic cacao powder and stevia! Seriously, no matter how stressful my day is......one sip and I'm transported to my blissful space! The best part is.... most days I don't manage to get in enough calories unless I make an effort to graze all day; so with my hot chocolate I'm getting 26gms protein, under 200 calories and did I mention. ....being transported to my blissful place.
