Ingredients
  

Smoothie Base
  • 1.5 cups frozen strawberries must be frozen for thick texture
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder whey or plant-based
  • 1 tbsp almond butter creamy
  • 0.25 cup coconut milk canned, full-fat
  • 0.5 cup almond milk unsweetened, add more if needed
For the Glass
  • 2-3 tbsp thick yogurt Greek or coconut yogurt

Equipment

  • High-speed blender
  • Ribbed or aesthetic drinking glass
  • Glass straw
  • Small spoon

Method
 

  1. Take a clean glass and use a small spoon to smear the thick yogurt around the inside walls to create a cloud-like aesthetic. Place the glass in the freezer while you blend.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen strawberries, vanilla protein powder, almond butter, coconut milk, and almond milk.
  3. Blend on high speed, using a tamper if necessary, until the mixture is completely smooth and very thick.
  4. Remove the prepared glass from the freezer and carefully pour or spoon the thick strawberry smoothie into the glass.
  5. Serve immediately with a glass straw.

Notes

Start with less almond milk and only add more if your blender gets stuck. This ensures the thickest, ice-cream-like texture possible.
