Description

I recently had one of those Core Power protein milkshakes, and it surprisingly tasted exactly like a vanilla milkshake. For 26 g of protein and fairly minimal ingredients (besides some artificial sweeteners), these seemed pretty good to have on occasion. My main issue was the price. So instead of spending $3.28 on a single bottle, let's do it for cheaper, shall we There's also a 42 g of protein version for $4.50 which I'm going to recreate here, with the same amount of protein and calories for a fraction of the cost

1 cup Fairlife skim milk

1 scoop Whey protein powder, unflavored

1 tsp Vanilla extract

1/4 tsp Liquid monk fruit

Add the whey and 1/2 cup (120 g) of your milk to a shaker bottle, and shake until fully dissolved. Add the rest of the milk, as well as vanilla extract, sweetener, and yogurt. Shake, adjust to taste, and enjoy

For chocolate instead of vanilla, omit, the vanilla extract, and instead use 1 tbsp (5 g) of cocoa powder

You can also sweeten this with a flavored electrolyte mix as well, like I did in my Electrolyte Protein Shake. Just replace the vanilla and liqud monk fruit with your electrolyte mix
