High Protein Peppermint Hot Chocolate [Sugar Free]

When you've spent a cold and dreary morning working out, a nice, hot drink is a must.  A high protein meal post-workout is essential for muscle repair, but perhaps you don't have the time to cook and sit down to eat a meal. So why not kill two birds with one stone with my recipe for a high protein hot chocolate.

Unlike some protein powders, Natural Max tastes just as chocolaty and delicious with water as it does with milk. Its ease of mixing (matched only by About Time protein) means no lumps and no shaker cup required - a simple spoon does the trick.

The addition of peppermint liquid stevia adds that extra depth of flavour without any added calories. With the macro profile and flavour, it could easily pass as a Starbucks knock-off drink. 

Ingredients

1 Cup Hot Water
1 Scoop Natural Max Skinny Fast Chocolate Protein Powder
6 Drops of Peppermint SweetLeaf Liquid Stevia
Splash of Unsweetened Almond Breeze 


Directions

Add the protein powder and liquid stevia to your mug along with a splash of hot water
Start stirring so as to avoid any lumps, slowly adding the rest of the hot water
Pour in a little almond milk and stir until the protein powder has dissolved

Makes 1 serve
