Recipe Instructions

1. Add the wet ingredients: Add the wet ingredients first to make sure that the ingredients mix well. This includes the almond milk, greek yogurt, peanut butter, vanilla extract, ice, and any other optional ingredients into your cup. 2. Add the dry ingredients: Add all the dry ingredient as well as any optional ingredients you prefer. This includes the vanilla protein powder, cinnamon, and any other optional ingredients. 3. Hand blend or shake: Use a hand blender to finely mix all the ingredients together. You can use a protein shaker bottle, but it will have a lumpy consistence and wouldn't be able to mix all the ingredients properly.
