I created this recipe because, sometimes, we just need that chocolatey, nutty fix, right? It’s a perfect balance of satisfying and nutritious, whether you’re looking for a post-workout recovery drink or a mid-day snack to keep you fueled.
Here’s what you’ll need for your Almond Joy Protein Shake:
Ingredients:
12 oz almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
1 scoop Arbonne Chocolate Protein Powder (get yours here)
2 tbsp whole raw almonds
2 tbsp coconut flakes (unsweetened)
1 cup ice (for a thick and refreshing texture)
Instructions: Start by pouring 12 oz of almond milk into your blender. Almond milk is light, creamy, and adds a subtle flavor that complements the chocolate protein perfectly, but feel free to use any milk that suits your preferences.
Next, add 1 scoop of Arbonne Chocolate Protein Powder. This protein powder isn’t just rich in flavor—it’s plant-based, easy to digest, and helps to keep you feeling full longer. The chocolate flavor really shines through in this shake, making it feel like a treat, without all the sugar.
Toss in 2 tablespoons of raw almonds. These add a nice crunch to the shake and give it a satisfying texture. Plus, almonds are packed with healthy fats, protein, and fiber, so they help keep you energized.
Then, add in 2 tablespoons of unsweetened coconut flakes. The coconut provides that tropical, nutty sweetness that perfectly complements the chocolate and almonds. It's like a flavor explosion in every sip!
Add 1 cup of ice to give your shake a thick, creamy texture. If you prefer a thinner shake, just reduce the amount of ice or add more milk to adjust the consistency to your liking.
Now, blend everything on high until smooth and creamy. You should have a rich, chocolatey, nutty shake that’s perfectly balanced and satisfying. Pour it into a glass, and you’re ready to enjoy!
The Almond Joy Protein Shake is not just tasty—it’s full of nutrients that support your wellness journey. With protein from the Arbonne Chocolate Protein Powder, healthy fats from the almonds and coconut, and the creamy goodness of almond milk, this shake is an easy way to refuel your body and indulge your cravings at the same time.
