Black Cherry Strawberry Protein Shake
It is a hot one today! But that’s not going to stop me from fitting in a nice long workout in the sun. Emilee and I are going to go on a seven mile walk and then tonight I’m going to go to a spin class. That is why it’s important to get in my protein and stay hydrated!
This morning I made a black cherry strawberry protein shake to have before the workout in the heat.
It has: 1 serving Genisoy protein powder, 1 cup frozen strawberries, 1 cup ice, 1 cup water, 1 packet all natural truvia blend black cherry drink mix, and a tbsp of chia seeds! Blend it all together and mix in the chia seeds!
Wow, that protein shake looks so good!
Hi, the recipe looks really great but were do you buy the black cherry drink mix? what can be substituted if i cannot find it?
thanks!!!
I would imagine that you could use any other type of single-serve drink powder mix. Whatever sounds good.
