Tips:

  • Fresh or frozen cranberries? Either will work in this smoothie. If using fresh cranberries, rinse them well before using. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them slightly before adding them to the blender.
  • Sweetener: The amount of sweetener you add to this smoothie is up to you. If you like your smoothies tart, you can omit the sweetener altogether. If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, start with 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup and add more to taste.
  • Protein powder: Use your favorite protein powder in this smoothie. Whey protein, soy protein, and pea protein are all good options.
  • Milk or yogurt: Either milk or yogurt can be used in this smoothie. If you use milk, you may want to add a little extra protein powder to make up for the lack of protein in milk. If you use yogurt, you can use either Greek yogurt or regular yogurt.
  • Toppings: This smoothie is delicious on its own, but you can also add toppings to make it even more special. Some good options include fresh cranberries, granola, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey.

Conclusion:

This cranberry cocktail protein smoothie is a delicious and refreshing way to start your day.
