Chocolate Protein Shake Recipe

by Will Grumke NASM CPT, CNC, BCS, WLS, FNS, VCS, Crossfit Level-1

There is nothing more decadent, delicious, and refreshing than a chocolate milkshake. The thick, creamy texture and rich chocolate flavor are the perfect combination when you’re craving something sweet.

However, most chocolate shakes are packed with fat, sugar, and calories, meaning that while they may satisfy your sweet tooth, they don’t satisfy your body’s nutritional needs. If you’re trying to meet specific fitness goals, they may not be a good fit.

That’s why I created this delicious chocolate protein shake recipe. As a chocolate lover, I understand that sweet craving for something rich and decadent. By adding in chocolate protein powder, almond butter, and chocolate chips too, it helps satisfy the craving for something rich and chocolatey, while still helping you meet your goals.

The best part about this chocolate protein shake recipe is that it's completely customizable!

You can try adding cocoa powder or sugar-free chocolate syrup to up the chocolate even more.
Add your favorite frozen fruit to add nutrients and switch up the flavor. Some of my favorites are cherries, raspberries, strawberries, or bananas. Keep in mind that if you add frozen fruit, you may also need to increase the amount of milk to keep it from getting too thick.

Alright, I won't keep you waiting any longer...
