Protein Shake

Pour the almond milk into the blender first, followed by the protein powder. Blend on low speed for 10 to 15 seconds to dissolve the powder completely and prevent clumping.

Add the frozen banana, almond butter, and any optional ingredients like frozen berries, honey, or vanilla extract. Adding frozen fruit after the protein powder ensures a smoother texture.

Blend on high speed for 45 to 60 seconds until the shake is completely smooth and no chunks of frozen fruit remain. If the shake is too thick, add a splash of milk and blend again.

Taste the shake and adjust by adding more honey for sweetness, a pinch of cinnamon for warmth, or a few ice cubes for extra thickness. Blend briefly to incorporate any additions.

Pour the shake into a tall glass or shaker bottle and serve immediately for the best texture and temperature. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the blender to get every last drop.
