Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Measure out 1/2 cup of your favorite vanilla ice cream (80g).
- Take 1 scoop of whey protein powder (30g).
- Measure 1 cup of 2% milk (240g).
- Add the ice cream to the blender first for easier blending.
- Add the scoop of whey protein powder.
- Pour 1 cup of milk over the other ingredients.
- Secure the lid on your blender.
- Blend on high until all the ingredients are fully combined and the milkshake has a smooth, creamy texture. This should take about 30 to 60 seconds.
- Taste the milkshake and adjust the sweetness or consistency if needed. If you prefer a sweeter shake, you can add a small amount of honey or a sugar substitute. If you want a thicker consistency, add a bit more ice cream; for a thinner consistency, add a little more milk.
- Pour the milkshake into a tall glass.
- Enjoy immediately with a straw or spoon.
Tips:
- For an extra frosty texture, use frozen milk cubes instead of regular ice cubes.
- Add half a banana for additional natural sweetness and a boost of potassium.
- Blend in a teaspoon of vanilla extract to enhance the vanilla flavor.
- For those watching their sugar intake, opt for a low-sugar or sugar-free ice cream.
- Consider using a blender with a smoothie or shake setting to achieve the perfect consistency.
- Experiment with different types of milk like almond, soy, or oat milk for a unique twist.
