We all know how bad the strawberry thick shakes from McDonald's and Starbucks' Strawberries & Cream Frappuccino are for us. They're full of sugars, additives and ingredients you've never heard of, but people keep going back for more because they taste so damn good. Today that will change. Natvia were kind enough to send me a pack of their Natvia, Norbu and Vitarium products, as in return I will be developing some recipes for their upcoming new and improved Sweeter Life Club website. Vitarium's strawberry drink mix is what gives this recipe it's intense flavour and the sweetness reminiscent of its unhealthy counterparts, but completely sugar free! Another improvement is using almond milk to make the thick shake vegan-friendly, however you could use rice, soy or oat milk if you prefer. Ingredients 2 Cups of Ice Cubes 2/3 Cup of Almond Breeze Unsweetened Almond Milk 3-4 tsp Vitarium Strawberry Drink Mix Directions Add all of the ingredients into a blender and pulse until all of the ice has been crushed Pour into a glass, and either drink with a straw, or use a spoon - it's that thick! Makes 1 serve Macros 30 calories 1g protein 2g fat 1g carbs 0g sugar 1g fibre How does my Vegan & Sugar Free Strawberry Thick Shake compare nutritionally with the drinks offered at McDonald's and Starbucks?
