Tips for Making Berry Blast Protein Shake

Fresh or Frozen Berries: Both fresh and frozen berries work well. Just note that frozen berries may create a thicker shake.
Adjust Thickness: If you prefer a thinner shake, add more milk. For a thicker shake, use less milk.
Flavor Boost: Consider adding a scoop of spinach, chia seeds, or flaxseeds for extra nutrients without altering the flavor.

Make-Ahead Instructions

Prepare all the ingredients in advance and keep them in the freezer until you’re ready to blend them up.
You can also pre-portion the mixed ingredients into ziplock bags to make it even more convenient.

Storing Leftovers

Berry Blast Protein Shake is best enjoyed fresh; however, you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Give it a quick shake or stir before consuming, as separation may occur.

Freezing Berry Blast Protein Shake

To freeze, pour the shake into ice cube trays and freeze until solid. These berry cubes can be used in smoothies later!
For a convenient smoothie later, pour the shake into freezer-safe containers and blend again when ready to serve.

Reheating Berry Blast Protein Shake

There’s no need to reheat; this shake is best enjoyed cold.
To refresh, simply blend again or add a bit of milk if it thickens after refrigeration.
