Summer is just around the corner, and I started brainstorming ways to cool off in the hot Florida sun. As a Floridian, ice cream will always be my first choice in the sweltering heat. Don’t get me wrong, I love snow cones too. Any flavor at the beach (besides those with Red 40, because I swear it hurts my stomach) will do. My favorite color is green, so I usually go with whatever flavor that is these days (apple? watermelon?). But I’ve decided that this summer, I want to “cool off with a purpose”.
Recently, I used my Nutribullet to create a delicious and refreshing drink to have by the pool. I added greek yogurt, water, ice, 2 servings of vanilla EAS Complete Protein powder and some mandarin orange juice. Yes, mandarin orange juice. Due to cross allergies, I can’t have regular oranges. Either way, add your favorite fruit juice. I’m thinking pineapple next time…
This recipe is simple and may be something you have tried before. Fruit drinks are a staple in Florida – I just added some protein powder to give it a little “kick”.
