Chocolate Malted Shake

This shake is a delicious, nutritious treat that is really enjoyed by everyone in our household. The kid’s love it and always ask for more! The shake gets its “malted” flavor, naturally, from Mesquite Powder. If you’ve never tried mesquite powder, you’re in for a real treat ;). You can read more about mesquite powder in the article “Mesquite Powder the Secret Ingredient“.

  • 2 cups raw whole milk or plain kefir
    OR 1 cup full fat coconut milk + 1 cup water
  • 4 Tbsp. chia seed gel (for a boost of omega-3’s), optional
  • 1 large ripe banana (for a creamy chocolate-banana flavor), optional
  • 4 Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 Tablespoons mesquite powder
  • 30 to 40 drops Vanilla stevia, or to taste
    OR 1 teaspoon vanilla extract + 30 to 40 drops of plain stevia, to taste (you could also sub. honey or maple syrup to taste)
  • 2 cups ice cubes

Place all ingredients in blender, in the order listed. Process until smooth and creamy. Pour into individual glasses and serve immediately.

Drink with a smile 😀 …and enjoy!

Serves 2 to 3.

  1. Hello, I have just recently joined Weight Watchers. In order for me to enjoy this yummy sounding beverage, I need to know how many points it is worth. I need the carbs, fat, protein and fibre content (in grams) to do this. If you have this info, I would really appreciate it. Thanks very much.

    • Krista, No we do not have the weight watchers info on our recipes. We view food as whole nutrition to nourish the body. I would suggest searching out the items that make up the recipe you are interested in to determine its values. This will help you learn how to identify foods without the guidance of a point system.
