Yields: 1 serving
Prep time: 5 minutes 

Ingredients: 

• 1 cup brewed coffee (hot or iced) 
• 1 scoop CollagenX 40UP Collagen Protein Powder 
• 1/4 cup dairy milk (or any preferred milk) 
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional) 
• Pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg (optional) 

Instructions: 

1. If making a hot proffee, brew your coffee and warm your milk. 
2. If making an iced proffee, brew strong coffee and let cool or use cold brew. 
3. Combine brewed coffee, CollagenX 40UP Collagen Protein Powder, milk, and honey/maple syrup (if using) in a blender or use a handheld frother. 
4. Blend or froth until smooth and creamy. 
5. Pour into a mug or glass, sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg (optional), and enjoy immediately. 

Tips: 

• For a thicker, more indulgent proffee, use a higher fat milk or add a tablespoon of heavy cream. 
• For an extra flavour boost, add a dash of vanilla extract or a flavoured syrup. 
• If you prefer a chilled proffee, blend with a few ice cubes for a refreshing treat.
