Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 scoops unflavored collagen peptides ensure it is grass-fed or marine-based
- 1.5 cups frozen mixed berries blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or any plant-based milk
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt plain and unsweetened for probiotics

- 0.25 tsp black pepper pinched to activate the turmeric
Notes
To make this ahead, blend everything except the collagen and store in a mason jar; stir the collagen in just before drinking. You can substitute the almond milk with coconut water for extra electrolytes. Frozen fruit is preferred over fresh to achieve a thick, milkshake-like consistency without watering it down with ice.
