Bonus? It comes together fast with just 4 ingredients and 5 minutes required! Let us show you how it’s done! This EASY chocolate cherry protein shake requires just 4 ingredients: frozen sweet cherries, your choice of milk, protein powder, and cocoa powder. Ice makes it thick, cold, and creamy — our favorite kind of shake! Keep it simple like that, or include the optional add-ins! Baby spinach boosts the nutrition with vitamin C, folate, magnesium, and more (and you can barely taste it’s there!). Cashew butter adds richness and makes it more satisfying. And vanilla extract and maple syrup (or dates) give it a sweeter, more decadent flavor! We think you’ll LOVE this shake! It’s:CreamyThickChocolatyLightly sweetenedQuick & easyProtein-packed (20+ grams/serving!)& SO delicious! This shake is perfect for a quick breakfast, post-workout refuel, or energizing snack.
