There is something special about a frozen lemonade shake on a hot day. Imagine taking that great lemonade flavor and combining it with vanilla protein for an amazing treat that is healthy and works toward your fitness goals.

That's what you get every time you mix up this frosted lemonade. Plain vanilla protein powder turns into a delicious post workout drink or meal replacement. The best part is that you aren't cheating on your nutrition plan.

Why You Will Love This Protein Shake

This simple protein shake starts with vanilla protein powder and a sugar free lemonade packet. Once you add ice, it turns into a creamy frosted lemonade shake with incredible flavor.

It's packed with protein and is low in sugar to keep you full until your next meal. Plus, it's so easy to mix up in a blender. All you have to do is dump it all in, pulse, and enjoy.

If this lemonade protein shake still isn't enough protein for your goals, try adding some Greek yogurt to it or pairing it with orange protein jello cups or banana pancakes. Your body and taste buds will thank you.

Ingredient Notes

With just a few ingredients, this lemonade protein shake might be your new favorite post workout recovery drink.

• Lemon Drink Packet - Use an individual sugar free lemonade packet such as True Lemon or Crystal Light.
• Vanilla Protein Powder - One scoop of your favorite vanilla protein powder is all you need for this frosty lemonade. If you are on the Optavia plan, use the vanilla shake fueling.
• Sugar Free Creamer (optional) - This will make the shake frothier and creamier.
• Ice Cubes - Keeps the smoothie nice and cold and gives it a frosted texture.
• Reddiwhip - Totally optional, but it gives your shake that Chick-fil-a look.

How to Make Protein Lemonade

Whip up this frosted lemonade smoothie in no time. Just don't drink it as fast as you made it, or you will have one major brain freeze!

Combine the ingredients. Add the ice, water, lemonade packet, protein powder, and optional creamer to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.

Garnish and enjoy. Pour into a cup and add a swirl of Reddiwhip. Drink slowly and responsibly (to avoid the brain freeze)! This is best served immediately.

Tips and Tricks

• Feel free to use sugar free lemonade instead of the water and lemon packet.
• Double the ingredients for a bigger shake with more protein power.
• Add a scoop of Greek yogurt to boost the protein.
• Try using Silk dairy free half & half if you do not buy or use sugar free creamer.
• Turn it into a smoothie bowl by increasing the ice. Top it with raspberries, blueberries, chia seeds, and/or granola.
• Swap the dry protein powder and water for a vanilla Premiere Protein shake. Add the lemon packet and ice and blend.
