Plain Almond Latte

Half a scoop, a shot of espresso, cold oat milk. The 3pm slump never sees you coming.

You'll need

• 1/2 scoop ARM Protein (Natural)
• 1 shot espresso (or 1/4 cup strong cold brew)
• 1 cup cold oat milk (or almond milk)
• Ice
• Optional: a pinch of cinnamon on top

The method

1. Pull a shot of espresso. Let it cool 30 seconds (or chill it briefly so it doesn't shock the protein).
2. In a shaker bottle, combine the ARM Protein, espresso, and a splash of the cold milk. Shake hard for 10 seconds — the protein dissolves into the espresso first, which keeps it lump-free.
3. Pour over ice in a tall glass. Top with the rest of the cold milk. Stir.
4. Optional: dust with cinnamon.

Why it works

The espresso pulls double duty — caffeine for the slump, and the slight acidity helps the protein blend without clumping. Half a scoop keeps it a light afternoon drink instead of a meal. Cold oat milk adds creaminess without dairy.

Make it your way

• Iced mocha: swap to ARM Chocolate; skip the cinnamon, add a splash of vanilla.
• Decaf: use decaf espresso or skip it entirely for a quick almond milk shake.
• Sweeter: add a small drizzle of maple syrup or a splash of vanilla extract to the shaker.
