Ingredients:

  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or non-dairy yogurt for a vegan option)
  • 1/4 tsp peppermint extract (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 frozen banana (for creaminess)
  • 1 tbsp cacao nibs or mini chocolate chips (optional for extra texture)
  • 1-2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional for sweetness)
  • Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker consistency)

Instructions:

  1. Combine the Ingredients:

    • In a blender, add the chocolate protein powder, almond milk, Greek yogurt, frozen banana, peppermint extract, and honey/maple syrup (if desired).
  2. Blend:

    • Blend on high until smooth and creamy. If you'd like a thicker texture, add a few ice cubes and blend again.
  3. Add Chocolate Chips or Cacao Nibs:

    • If you’re using cacao nibs or mini chocolate chips, pulse them into the smoothie at the end for a bit of extra crunch.
  4. Taste and Adjust:

    • Taste the shake and add more mint extract if you want a stronger mint flavor. If it needs more sweetness, add additional honey or maple syrup.
  5. Serve:

    • Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately for a refreshing and protein-packed treat!

Tips:

  • Vegan Option: Use plant-based protein powder and non-dairy yogurt to keep this shake vegan-friendly.
  • For a Thicker Shake: Add more frozen banana, or use a small handful of ice cubes to get the perfect consistency.
  • Extra Mint: For a stronger minty flavor, you can also add a few fresh mint leaves while blending.
