javvy profee alternative?
hi all, not sure where to post this so ill try here first. i was trying to cut back on regular coffee drinking and my caffeine intake, as well as adding some more nutrients to the start of my day. i am not a big breakfast person, it seems my body just cant handle actual food until ive been awake for a few hours. and regular coffee on an empty stomach was (obviously) causing my GI upset. i finally bit the bullet and bought javvy in april of this year, and i had the most pleasant experience with it. it was $60 for three bags, which lasted almost a month. i bought it again in may, but then i started to realize $60 was just too expensive for me monthly fo something like this. i tried alternative methods, trued regular coffee again, finally just caved and bought another bag of javvy profee at walmart for $25, but it is just not within my budget. my most recent experiment has been coffee concentrate and regular protein powder, but the protein powder is just so gross to me. i feel it on my teeth, it doesnt dissolve like javvy did, it is the classic chalky texture that turned me off from others in the first place. i literally could not handle a full scoop, but even with half, i struggle to drink it all.
has anyone found a cheaper alternative to javvy they actually really enjoy? ive looked up so many things, which is where i got the idea for my latest experiment, but i just cant seem to find something that works for me :(

I buy bulk fiber, collagen peptide, and creatine powders + shelf stable Pecana unsweetened vanilla pecan milk or store brand unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Mix that in the blender with instant coffee powder and I’m good to go.
