This protein smoothie is the smoothie you drink after the gym. It’s full of exactly what you need right after a hard workout – protein. Specifically, this recipe calls for whey protein powder. Whey protein is the best type of protein for physically active people because it has all of the essential amino acids that you need. Like any protein powder infused smoothie, this can taste a bit chalky if you overdo it on the powder. Make sure to add honey as needed to mask the unpleasant taste.
If you are planning to carry this drink to your gym, make sure you carry it in an insulated gym bottle so it remains fresh and cold!
