A cool and frosty pick-me-up. Bananas and dates create a rich, caramelly experience, mixed with a boost from protein powder. For a sweeter version, add vanilla extract.

Ingredients

  • 2 pitted dates
  • 1 small frozen banana
  • 1 heaping cup ice cubes
  • 1⁄2 cup cold coffee
  • 1⁄2 cup milk, your choice
  • 1 scoop Power Up Salted Caramel Protein Blend
  • 2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1⁄2 tsp vanilla extract, optional

Preparation

  • Coarsely chop dates. Slice banana into chunks. Place both in a blender.
  • Add ice cubes, coffee, milk, protein blend, cocoa powder, and vanilla, if using.
  • Cover and blend until just slushy; add more milk, as needed, to reach desired consistency. Pour into chilled glasses.
