Directions

  1. Wash and dry the lime, then zest and juice it directly into the blender.
  2. Wash, peel, and slice the mango flesh away from the pit; rough chop and add to the blender.
  3. Pour in the milk and yogurt to the blender with the mango.
  4. Add the vanilla whey protein, maple syrup, vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and a dash of ground cardamom.
  5. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth, stopping as needed to scrape down the sides.
  6. If the shake seems too thick, add more liquid per package directions and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
  7. Divide the shake into two glasses and add ice if you like; serve right away.

Two tips

  • Prep lime zest and juice and peeled mangoes ahead of time for a quick nudge in the morning.
  • Serve over a few ice cubes or chill the components for a cooler, lighter sip.
