Soya and Protein Shakes

Varieties

Soya and protein shakes come in a variety of flavours, including chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and others. Many natural varieties use less sugar, colours, and flavours, and often contain added fibre. Shakes may come in powdered form, or in cans or bottles, usually in single servings.

Buying and storing tips

Store liquid shakes in the refrigerator, unopened, for up to two weeks. Store the powdered or tinned variety in a cool, dark location for up to three months.

Preparation, uses, and tips

Use soya and protein shakes instead of coffee and Danish for a fast breakfast. Whirl shakes in a blender with a banana or a handful of berries for extra nutrition.
