About flavoring coffee (lemmy.world)

I am very much a black coffee person, that said, once in a while I wouldn't mind flavor of some sort in my coffee, I see these people with there French Vanilla, or cinnamon coffee creamer and I will admit I get a bit jealous.

I am working on getting in shape, other than round, and on a budget, so I have been toying with the idea of trying a protein powder or something similar as creamer.

I was hoping I could get some alternative ideas for coffee creamer here. I am looking for low calorie, and ideally something with protein. Does anyone have an idea?

On keto, I drank lattes/cold brew coffee made with only heavy cream. Obviously, that's a bit extreme, so now I do iced breve lattes, which is a normal latte, but with half and half instead of milk. Very flavorful and rich, adds some protein, and doesn't involve nasty fake flavors.

Would this be the same hot? I am not a cold brew person myself.

Yes, using half and half just makes it richer. I can sip on one for a few hours because it's filling.
