How to Make the Perfect Chocolate Banana Berry Protein Shake

  1. Prep: Start by peeling the bananas and washing the berries. If using frozen berries, make sure they’re thawed.
  2. Blending: In a blender, toss in the bananas, mixed berries, chocolate protein powder, almond milk, and Greek yogurt. If you’re looking for that extra touch of sweetness, pour in the honey or maple syrup.
  3. Boost It: Sprinkle the chia seeds in. They don’t just add to the nutritional value but give a fun texture to the shake.
  4. Blend Again: Give it a whirling good blend until you achieve a creamy consistency. This should take around 2 minutes.
  5. Taste Test: Give your shake a quick taste. Adjust the sweetness if needed. Remember, your Chocolate Banana Berry Protein Shake should be a balance between health and delight!

Tips to Jazz Up Your Shake

  1. Want a colder shake? You can toss in a few ice cubes while blending. It gives your shake an added chill factor, perfect for those hot summer days.
  2. If you’re looking to make your Chocolate Banana Berry Protein Shake thicker, consider adding a touch more Greek yogurt or even a handful of oats.
  3. For a nuttier flavor, sprinkle in some flax seeds or almond slivers.
  4. If you’re watching your sugar intake, skip the honey or maple syrup. The natural sweetness from the bananas and berries usually does the trick!
