Holiday flavors have a way of feeling nostalgic in a way that instantly says December. But most seasonal treats come with a quick sugar high and an even quicker crash.
This Candy Cane Protein Shake brings together festive flavor and quality ingredients, using two of our A2 Proteins — Vanilla Crème and Peppermint Milkshake — for a blend that feels indulgent, balanced, and easy to fit into your routine.
Ingredients
- 1 scoop Vanilla Crème A2 Protein
- 1 scoop Peppermint Milkshake A2 Protein
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup whole A2 milk (or milk of choice)
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt or cottage cheese
- A handful of ice (optional, for a thicker texture or if using room-temperature bananas)
Toppings (optional, but encouraged!):
- Whipped cream
- Crushed candy canes
Instructions
- Add all shake ingredients to a blender, then blend until smooth and creamy.
- Top with whipped cream and crushed candy canes.

For a more classic candy-cane effect, add stripes inside the glass before pouring your shake. A light drizzle of strawberry syrup or raspberry purée works beautifully and adds a subtle pop of color without overpowering the peppermint flavor.
