Focus Fuel: Vanilla Mocha Protein Nut Butter Latte Recipe

For many, morning coffee is more than just a beverage, it’s a ritual that signals the start of a productive day. But what if you could turn that daily cup into a functional drink that not only wakes you up but also supports focus, mental clarity, and your nutritional goals? That’s where protein coffee comes in, and Space And Time’s FOCUS mushroom coffee blend makes it easy to take this idea to the next level.

Why Combine Protein with Coffee?

Protein coffee, sometimes called “proffee,” has grown in popularity as a convenient way to combine the energizing effects of coffee with the muscle-repair and satiety benefits of protein. By blending these two, you create a drink that helps sustain energy, prevents mid-morning crashes, and keeps you feeling full longer.

Adding protein to your coffee can:

  • Support muscle recovery after workouts

  • Keep you fuller for longer compared to coffee alone

  • Help stabilize energy by balancing caffeine with a nutrient-dense boost

When you use Space And Time’s FOCUS blend, you also add functional ingredients like Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, Ginkgo biloba, L-Theanine, Citicoline, and organic coffee, designed to promote focus, concentration, and mental performance.

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 1 cup (8–10 oz) brewed FOCUS mushroom coffee blend

  • 1 scoop chocolate or vanilla protein powder

  • 1 tablespoon almond or cashew butter

  • 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder

  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • ½–1 cup unsweetened dairy or plant-based milk (for creaminess)

  • Ice (for iced version)

  • Optional: drizzle of melted dark chocolate or a dusting of cocoa powder

Hot Vanilla Mocha Nut Butter Protein Coffee

  1. Brew your coffee — Prepare 1 cup of hot FOCUS according to the package directions.

  2. Blend for creaminess — In a blender, combine hot coffee, protein powder, nut butter, cocoa powder, vanilla, and milk if desired. Blend for 20–30 seconds until smooth and frothy.

  3. Serve — Pour into your favorite mug, top with a dusting of cocoa powder, and enjoy a rich, functional pick-me-up.

Iced Vanilla Mocha Nut Butter Protein Coffee

  1. Make your base — Brew 1 cup of FOCUS and let it cool slightly.

  2. Shake it up — In a shaker bottle, combine cooled coffee, protein powder, nut butter, cocoa powder, vanilla, and cold milk. Shake vigorously until smooth and creamy.

  3. Serve over ice — Fill a tall glass with ice, pour your protein coffee over, and finish with a drizzle of melted dark chocolate if desired.

This version combines the brain-boosting adaptogens and nootropics of FOCUS with the decadent flavor of nut butter, vanilla, and chocolate, making every sip both functional and indulgent.

The Functional Edge of FOCUS Mushroom Coffee

FOCUS isn’t your average coffee. Each serving delivers:

  • Lion’s Mane Mushroom to support memory, focus, and cognitive function

  • Cordyceps for sustained energy and endurance

  • Ginkgo biloba to promote healthy blood flow to the brain

  • Citicoline for mental clarity and attention

By pairing these nootropic and adaptogenic benefits with protein, you create a morning ritual that supports both your mind and body.
