Ingredients
- Mixed Berries: A mixture of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries, these berries are loaded with antioxidants and are naturally sweet.
- Greek Yogurt: Creamy and rich in protein, Greek yogurt helps create a smooth texture while adding a tangy flavor.
- Protein Powder: Choose whey or plant-based protein to add an extra protein boost to your shake.
- Milk or Milk Alternative: Any type of milk (almond, soy, cow’s) can be used to reach your desired consistency.
- Honey or Maple Syrup: Optional sweetness to taste, depending on your preference and the sweetness of the berries.
- Ice Cubes: These help chill your shake and make it refreshingly cool.
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the mixed berries, Greek yogurt, protein powder, and milk.
- Add honey or maple syrup for sweetness if desired, and toss in a handful of ice cubes.
- Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or add additional milk for a thinner consistency.
- Pour the shake into glasses and enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture!
Notes
- 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.
