Last Updated Sep 23, 2025

Why Settle for Just Coffee or Just Protein? Most of us start our day with coffee. Many of us also turn to protein shakes for fuel and recovery. But what if you could combine the two into one powerful drink? The Coffee Protein Shake is designed to give you energy + nutrition in a single sip. At Javvy Coffee, we’ve mastered the art of combining bold coffee flavors with premium protein, so you can fuel your body and satisfy your taste buds at the same time.

What Is a Coffee Protein Shake?

A coffee protein shake blends brewed or concentrated coffee with protein powder or fortified protein coffee. The result is a balanced energy drink that provides:

Caffeine for focus and alertness

Protein for muscle recovery and sustained energy

Delicious flavors that make it feel like a treat, not just fuel

It’s the ultimate solution for busy mornings, post-workout recovery, or an afternoon pick-me-up.

Benefits of Coffee Protein Shakes

1. Energy + Recovery in One

Coffee delivers caffeine for energy, while protein supports muscle repair and satiety. This makes it perfect for athletes, professionals, and anyone who wants to stay sharp throughout the day.

2. Weight Management & Metabolism

Protein helps increase satiety, reducing cravings, while caffeine may boost metabolism. This combo supports healthy weight management. (Harvard Health)

3. Convenience

Instead of making coffee and a protein shake separately, you can get both in one. Javvy Coffee’s Protein Coffee simplifies the process: just mix, shake, and sip.

4. Flavor Without Guilt

Unlike sugary energy drinks or dessert-like shakes, Javvy’s blends use low-sugar, protein-rich formulas with indulgent flavors like Sugar Cookie, Caramel, and Cinnamon Roll.
