Piña Colada Shake
Piña Coladas always taste like sweet, sunny summertime. They also taste like sugar, cream, and calories. And headaches rum. This popular Piña Colada Shakeology recipe comes to the rescue with a healthy version of the tropical cocktail!
This recipe substitutes Vanilla protein powder for coconut cream, and adds pineapple juice and pure coconut extract to create a flavor that will make you daydream that you’re lying in a hammock watching waves crash on a sandy beach (just don’t get caught in the rain). A colorful cocktail umbrella completes that pretty picture.
This recipe calls for a half cup of pineapple juice and we realize that’s going to leave you with a lot left over! While tasty, we don’t recommend drinking it by the glassful, as it’s awfully high in sugar. Instead, freeze the remainder in ice cube trays so you can enjoy a piña colada smoothie anytime the mood strikes. To make it with frozen pineapple juice, just add four cubes of frozen juice to the blender along with regular ice.
Ingredients:
- 1 scoop Vanilla protein powder
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup 100% pineapple juice
- ½ tsp. pure coconut extract
- ½ cup ice (add more to taste)
Instructions
Here are your instructions:
Place water, pineapple juice, coconut extract, protein powder, and ice in blender; cover. Blend until smooth.
