If you’re sick of the same old cup of joe, here are a few quick-and-easy coffee hacks from TikTok to switch up your caffeine game!  Make your iced coffee on the stronger side.   Instead of using just regular ice cubes, freeze the coffee itself.  Or freeze whatever type of creamer you like then your java won’t get watered down.  Give instant espresso a try.  Just mix a bunch of instant coffee with a tiny bit of water.  One popular video says to use one heaping teaspoon per ounce.   That’s about eight times stronger than a normal cup of instant coffee.  Try “proffee” which is protein coffee.  We’ve mentioned adding protein powder before on Carolina A.M. but instead of adding creamer to your coffee, try adding a whole protein drink.   Or just add coffee when you make a protein shake in a blender.  Finally, make your own homemade cold brew ice cream.   Just mix up a bunch of whipping cream, add condensed milk, a little cocoa powder and a few tablespoons of cold coffee. Mix it all together and toss it in the freezer overnight.
