Ingredients (Serves 1)
- 2 tablespoons Syruvia French Vanilla Syrup (sugar-free or pure cane)

- 1 cup milk of choice (almond, oat, dairy, soy, etc.)
- ½ frozen banana (optional for added creaminess)
- ½ cup ice cubes

How to Make the Ultimate French Vanilla Protein Shake
1. Add Ingredients to Blender
Start by adding your milk of choice to the blender. Follow with the scoop of vanilla protein powder, Syruvia French Vanilla Syrup, frozen banana (if using), and a pinch of cinnamon. Top it off with a handful of ice cubes to chill and thicken the shake.
2. Blend Until Smooth
Blend on high speed for about 30–45 seconds, or until the mixture is creamy and smooth with no visible chunks of banana or ice. If it’s too thick for your liking, add a splash more milk and blend again briefly.
3. Taste and Adjust
Taste the shake. If you want a stronger vanilla flavor or a touch more sweetness, add a little extra Syruvia French Vanilla Syrup and give it one more quick blend.
4. Serve Immediately
Pour the shake into a tall glass and enjoy it cold. You can garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or even a few vanilla bean specks for that café-style flair.
This french vanilla protein shake recipe makes for a perfect on-the-go breakfast, post-workout fuel, or even a mid-afternoon treat. It's creamy, clean, and packed with flavor—proving that healthy can still taste like dessert.
