Why you'll love this Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Shake
One word. Nostalgia.
Is there anything better than PB and chocolate? Ok other than PB + jelly and some other iconic flavor duos, maybe. Just hear us out.
Consider this a grown up (and easy), elevated, nutritious version of that same flavor profile. In drink form, with:
- Protein: whether plant-based or not, helps keep you satiated, energized and focused. And delivers amino acids, the building blocks needed for muscle repair, hormone synthesis, etc... something we could also use more of as we get older.
- Peanut butter for an extra dose of salty, smooth and creamy protein and iconic, memorable flavor.
- Your choice of Calm Cacao Superblend or Defend Vanilla-Maca Superblend because A) being a grown up is all about choices and B) everyone could use a little more adaptogenic, nervous system calming, immune and stress support. Both Superblends whether chocolate or vanilla, feature Reishi and Maca.
So how's that for elevated nostalgia? All that's left to do is blend + serve in the fanciest glass you have, and enjoy.
