I have really done well in regards to not drinking coffee anymore and I am definitely proud of that! Today was an off day though and I felt drained and so tired from fighting this sinus infection that I needed something to get me going again.
I decided that I would have a cup of coffee today! Instead of heading to Starbucks for a $4-$5 Mocha Frappucino that adds an insane amount of calories to my day and always leaves me feeling guilty in the end anyways, I decided to try something with my Shakeology! :)
I brewed a large Irish Cream K-cup and let that cool down while I added a cup of ice and a scoop of Chocolate Shakeology to my blender. I added a few pieces of ice to the coffee to cool it down even quicker since you don't want to heat up the Shakeology and kill any of the 70+ nutrients in it. Then added the coffee with a cup of Vanilla almond milk as well! Blend blend blend!! :)
I am sitting here drinking it as I type and cannot even tell you how satisfying this is to me flavor wise and I do not even feel remotely guilty! Instead I know I am giving my body the best nutrition it can get with that extra caffeine I needed today! I won't do this often as I am not a huge caffeine person normally, but this was an incredible fix and will be something I come back to!
It made more than enough that I was able to put a cup in the freezer for when my husband gets home in a few minutes to enjoy!! :)
