Raspberry Protein Smoothie
This raspberry protein smoothie is a simple plant-based option made with Silk Protein Regular beverage. Blended with frozen raspberries, banana, and chia seeds, it creates a smooth and creamy protein drink that fits easily into your morning or afternoon routine.
Tips Before Making Your Raspberry Protein Smoothie
Use Frozen Fruit for a Creamy Texture
Frozen raspberries and frozen banana are the secret to a thick smoothie. Using frozen fruit eliminates the need for ice, which can water down the flavour. The result is a rich, naturally sweet smoothie with a refreshing, spoonable consistency.
If your fruit isn’t frozen, simply add a few ice cubes, but keep in mind the texture may be slightly lighter.
Boost Protein Without Compromising Taste
Using our Silk Protein Regular Drink provides a smooth base while adding plant-based protein to your smoothie. Its neutral taste pairs well with the natural sweetness of raspberries and banana.
Chia seeds add texture, and spinach (optional) blends in easily without changing the berry flavour profile. It’s a simple way to include greens while maintaining a balanced taste.
