  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder Whey mixes smoother than plant-based options.
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk You can substitute with any milk of choice.
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla) Provides creaminess and a protein boost.
  • 1-2 teaspoons honey (optional) For added sweetness, if desired.
  • 2-3 cubes ice Optional, enhances thickness.
  • Crushed graham cracker or shortbread for topping (optional) Sprinkling on top can enhance flavor.
