Notes
*The flavor of this drink will depend on the vanilla protein shake you choose, so pick one you love. I don’t recommend using powdered protein here, as it tends to be too gritty and won’t blend well. I’ve tested several liquid protein shakes and found that Fairlife Nutrition Plan Vanilla and Orgain Clean Protein Shake in Vanilla Bean work best. For a vegan option, Ripple Vanilla is a fantastic choice.
