Protein Pineapple Crush Refresher

Protein Pineapple Crush Refresher

You are going to love this Macro Friendly Protein Pineapple Crush Refresher. It's perfect for when you want something light but still packed with protein.

Sometimes I'm not feeling a protein shake, protein fluff or really anything to eat. I know I always promote eating your protein, but shakes and refreshers are okay too if you're not too hungry and need a snack. They're also convenient when you're on the go.

My protein pineapple crush refresher is also an amazing post workout drink. It's no secret that after a workout the best combo is some protein and carbs. Since I count my macros and need to hit my protein goal, this drink is great. I know a lot of other people struggle to hit their daily protein goal and this is packed with 25g.

Here's what you'll need:

  • Mason Jar - it's cute and always a must when making a cute drink. They're so versatile as well. A great way to store pickled veggies, overnight oats, salads, dressings, and of course cute drinks.
  • Pineapple Crush Packet - I used Pineapple but they also offer a variety pack with cherry, watermelon, grape, strawberry and orange.
  • Protein Powder - This is one of my favorites. I use the vanilla flavor but they have great flavors! I used this protein powder to make my protein fluff as well.
  • Milk Frother - Definitely a household item you need. You can make my refresher, cold foam, matcha, etc.
  • 8 ounces of water

Can I switch out the pineapple flavor?

Of course. This can be used with any flavoring of your choice - you can use mio, the hawaiian punch singles, crystal light, etc. I usually like to stick with anything zero calories and sugar free.

Can I use bubbly water?

Definitely! If you want to make it more of a soda or some may even call it a protein mockatil go ahead - is that a thing? We are making it a thing now. What is even considered a mocktail? Does a chocolate milk count as a mocktail? Insert laughing emoji. Ok, we are getting off topic.
