Making a "Breve"

Substitute for Latte, Espresso, or any thick coffee drink?

In warm weather this is my afternoon pick me up:

Starbucks via (no sugar version) blended with ice, a scoop of vanilla protein powder (Jay Robb vanilla or unsweetened and unflavored Jarrow), stevia and erythritol, a little vanilla, and a tiny bit of xanthan gum (keeps the ice in suspension).

It is really good and I don't miss SB iced coffees or blended drinks at all with this. I don't really do the sugar free syrups but if you like them, they'd be great added to a drink like this.

My post above should also include almond milk. I wasn't able to edit for some reason.
