Equipment

Measuring cups
Blender (I have and love my Ninja)
Bowl & spoon

Ingredients

10-12 ice cubes
¾ cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
1 scoop chocolate protein powder (I used Clean Simple Eats Brownie Batter (code TAMI) but I also love 1st Phorm Level-1)
¼ tsp xantham gum (thickening agent)
⅛ tsp peppermint extract
2 crushed chocolate mint cookies (I used Back to Nature plant-based snacks, but any variety will do!)
1 tbsp mini chocolate chips
2 tbsp sugar-free chocolate syrup (I used Hersey’s, but there are lots of options)

Instructions

Add 10-12 ice cubes to your blender cup, then add unsweetened almond milk, protein powder, xantham gum, and peppermint extract.
Place the lid on the blender cup and give it a shake.
Blend the contents of the cup for about 30 seconds, or until completely smooth.
Remove the lid and scrape the chocolate mint protein shake into a bowl or cup (note: the mixture should be very thick and creamy!)
Top with crushed mint cookies, mini chocolate chips, and a drizzle of sugar-free chocolate syrup.
Enjoy!

Notes

Peppermint extract can be overpowering if too much is added - be mindful of your pour.
