Method
Base & Protein
Secure blender lid and pulse once to break up ice (about 2 pulses) before blending on high. This helps prevent large ice chunks and ensures even mixing.
Fruit & Sweetener
Add strawberries and sweetener
Add the 3 oz hulled strawberries and 1 tablespoon honey (or agave) into the blender with the base. If using frozen strawberries, add them directly; if using fresh and you want a colder drink add an extra 1/4 cup ice.
Blend on high for 20–30 seconds until the strawberries are fully pureed and the mixture is smooth and uniformly pink.
Flavor & Texture
Brighten and balance
Add 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of fine sea salt to the blender. These small additions enhance the strawberry flavor and round the sweetness.
Optional Add-ins
If using milled flaxseed or chia seeds, add 1 teaspoon now and blend 3–5 seconds. These add-ins provide omega-3s and fiber but will slightly thicken the drink. If you opted to use almond milk, add up to 2 tablespoons now and blend until combined.
If texture is too thick after all additions, gradually add up to 1/4 cup more cold water or almond milk and pulse until desired consistency is reached.
Serve
Pour the Prime Protein Strawberry into a chilled glass. Optionally garnish with a fresh strawberry on the rim or a light dusting of protein powder.
Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
