Ingredients
- Ice cubes
- 1 cup
- Coconut flakes
- 2 tablespoons, plus extra for garnish
- Vanilla protein powder
- 1 scoop
- Coconut milk
- 1 cup
- Frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 cup
Instructions
- Place the frozen pineapple chunks, coconut milk, vanilla protein powder, coconut flakes, and ice cubes into a blender.
- Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the shake is thicker than you prefer, add a splash more coconut milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
- Pour the shake into a tall glass. Top it off with additional coconut flakes for that extra tropical flair.
- Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture. Enjoy this refreshing, protein-packed Pina Colada Shake as a delightful start to your day or a replenishing post-workout snack.
Tips
- For an extra protein kick, try adding a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds to the blender.
- If you prefer your shake colder, you can freeze the coconut milk into ice cubes and use them instead of regular ice cubes.
