Ingredients
  

Shake Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 1/2 small frozen banana
  • 1/4 tsp peppermint extract
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 4-5 ice cubes
  • 1/2 tsp chia seeds optional, for extra fiber

Method
 

  1. Add the unsweetened almond milk, chocolate protein powder, frozen banana, peppermint extract, cocoa powder, ice cubes, and optional chia seeds to a high-speed blender.
  2. Blend all ingredients on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. If the shake is too thick, add a splash more almond milk.
  3. Taste the shake and adjust the sweetness or mint flavor if desired. You can add a tiny bit more peppermint extract for a stronger mint flavor, or a few drops of stevia for more sweetness.
  4. Pour the mint chocolate protein shake into a glass and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.

Notes

For an extra rich shake, use a plant-based milk with a higher fat content like cashew milk. To achieve a colder, thicker shake without adding more ice, ensure your banana is thoroughly frozen. If you prefer a less intense mint flavor, start with a quarter teaspoon of peppermint extract and add more incrementally.
