root beer float protein shake

Once in a while I come up with something really yummy and have to share.

This shake has:

about six oz of milk

vanilla protein powder

about six oz of diet root beer

Mine also has Miralax but if you are lucky enough to poop without that, you can skip the Miralax.

I used Syntrax Nectar vanilla bean protein powder, which, when mixed with whole raw milk ,tastes a whole lot like vanilla ice cream.  I'm guessing mixing it with soy milk would not have quite the same effect.  You could use any brand of vanilla protein you want, of course.

Put the milk, protein powder and Miralax (if you're adding that) in a cup with a lid and shake well.  Then pour in the diet root beer and stir it a little with a spoon.  I'm drinking mine right now with a straw.  It's super yummy.

OMG, sounds yummy...I thought I had to give up my Root beer Float when I had RNY, but thanks to you, Kelly, and your greatness, I get to have it with my lactose free milk and protein.

Thanks,

Rosemary

I did this with my vanilla optifast pre op and it was delicious!!!!    I'm not comfortable drinking carbonation yet, so I'm gonna have to pass, but it sounds wonderful.

I also did this pre-op with Vanilla opti-fast.

If anyone likes orange, you can use diet orange crush and do the same thing - tastes just like a creamsicle!!  :)
