Chocolate-covered strawberries are the inspiration for this lightly sweet protein shake, with 26 grams of protein. Strawberry jam, chocolate protein powder and cashew milk make a rich and silky-smooth drink, and a drizzle of chocolate syrup both in the shake and on the glass make it extra fun.

Ingredients

Directions

Special equipment:
a shaker bottle with a blender ball
  1. Add the milk, jam, protein powder, chocolate syrup, sweetener and salt to a shaker bottle with a blender ball and shake until smooth, about 1 minute. Taste and adjust with more sweetener if desired. Drizzle a little chocolate syrup on the sides of the glass just before serving.

Cook’s Note

For a plant-based shake, substitute chocolate pea protein powder for the protein powder. Since pea protein powder can be grainy, we recommend blending it in a high-powered blender or single-serving blender for a smoother texture. To make it fully vegan, also make sure to use a vegan sweetener, such as agave, maple syrup or vegan honey.
