Tips & Substitutions
For a thicker shake, consider using frozen yogurt or ice cream instead of regular yogurt. You can also add a handful of spinach or kale for extra nutrients without changing the flavor significantly. If you want a sweeter shake, a drizzle of honey or agave syrup can enhance the sweetness. For a fun twist, blend in a scoop of vanilla protein powder to make it more filling.

Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover shake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. To enjoy it again, give it a good shake or stir before drinking, as separation may occur.
