Strawberry Bliss Shake

Hey everyone!! Hope you all are enjoying the last weeks of summer. It always seems like it flies by! But I always try to look at the positive side of everything and right now, I'm excited for fall weather, football, fall veggies & fruits, and fall fashion! What about you?

I recently made this shake because I was craving a strawberry milkshake that tasted similar to Nesquik's strawberry milk but of course a healthier version!! Here is what I came up with. And let me tell you, it tastes INCREDIBLE if not, better than the Nesquik brand!

Strawberry Bliss Shake

2 cups Almond Milk
1 1/2 cups frozen organic strawberries
1 tablespoon coconut butter (optional)
1 tablespoon pure organic maple syrup (My favorite is Whole Foods' 365 brand Grade B maple syrup)
3-5 drops of liquid stevia
1/4 cup of ice

Blend and enjoy!
You may also add your choice of protein powder to this for a pre or post workout shake! My personal choices of protein powder are Tone It Up's PerfectFit protein or Nutiva's Hemp protein!

I hope you all love it as much as I do!

XOXO- Nicole
