Salivating already? Power up that blender to treat your body (and tastebuds) to this feel-good green shake.

Better-for-you ingredient swaps:

• Greek yogurt and milk: As dairy products, these offer a similar creaminess to ice cream—but with less sugar and saturated fat. The powerful combination of quality fats and protein support your energy, so nothing stops your fun.^[2]
• Fresh mint: Sugar-laden processed syrups are no match for fresh mint’s real, refreshing taste.
• Baby spinach: Artificial food coloring pales in comparison to baby spinach, which adds a natural green hue while simultaneously boosting nutrient intake.
• Collagen Peptides: Our Unflavored Collagen Peptides are the star ingredient in this recipe. They are unflavored and dissolve in hot or cold liquids. Collagen production slows at a certain age, so supplementing with high-quality collagen promotes healthier skin, hair, nails and joints.^[3]
