Hey there! This is Allie from Pimp My Protein Shake, a blog obsessed with homemade blended protein shakes. Does that sound a bit familiar? That’s why I’m so excited to guest post on The Blender Diaries and give you the recipe for the Cralmondberry Protein Shake!
The holidays may be over, but I still have a freezer full of cranberries. Loaded with phytochemicals and antioxidants, the low-glycemic cranberry is a fruit that shouldn’t be put away with the ornaments as soon as you’re sick of holiday carols…
As always with my shakes, the measurements are approximate and adjust to taste.
- 1/2 cup washed, frozen cranberries
- 1 serving of vanilla protein powder
- Almond flavoring: a splash of sugar-free almond syrup, sugar-free Almond Roca syrup or about 1 tsp almond extract
- Stevia extract if needed for additional sweetness
- Liquid: Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze, milk or non-dairy milk – just enough to blend if you want a thick shake
- 5-10 ice cubes
- Optional: 1/4 tsp guar gum plus 1/8 tsp xanthan gum to help thicken and emulsify the shake
Blend all ingredients and adjust ice cubes and liquid to desired thickness. Enjoy!
