Rich, creamy, sweet, and tropical, you'd never guess that this shake was protein packed and low in sugar. With my first sip, the coconutty and banana flavor reminded me of all my Hawaiian vacations. Mmm, sipping a shake on the beach in Hawaii... sigh.
This shake starts with Quest's Banana Cream protein powder, which is the newest protein powder flavor alongside Salted Caramel. Then all you need is coconut milk and ice! You can also add in a spoon or two of shredded coconut flakes! I used about 1 teaspoon of these.
Super rich, creamy, foamy, and all other delicious adjectives. |

Quest makes great protein powder! It tastes wonderful. However, I like to use Sunwarrior mainly because it's plant based.
