More people are aiming to increase their protein intake for energy and satiety, and adding it to coffee creates a simple habit stack that makes an everyday ritual even more nourishing—and for those who want a boost of caffeine and protein without the need to mix anything, there are ready-to-drink Wandering Bear Cold Brew Lattes.
Made to be sipped straight from the can in creamy, coffee shop-style varieties like Double Latte, Vanilla, and Mocha, Wandering Bear's Cold Brew Lattes come in at just 100 calories, and provide 11 grams of complete milk protein from ultra-filtered skim milk, and 140 milligrams of caffeine from Wandering Bear's organic, specialty-grade cold brew. With zero grams of saturated fat and just a touch of natural cane sugar, these ready-to-drink lattes challenge the notion that lattes can only be indulgent and sugary.
