Double Chocolate Peppermint Shake Recipe

We’re taking the beloved 310 Organic Peppermint Swirl to the next level with this Double Chocolate Peppermint Shake! It’s the perfect combination of refreshing peppermint and rich chocolate, for a tasty and healthy dessert that anyone and everyone can enjoy. I especially love the additional crunch of cacao nibs for a fun chocolate chip texture! With the busy holiday season, a quick, nutritious, and convenient snack is just what I’m looking for. This shake checks off all the boxes while swirling some holiday cheer into the day!

Staying aligned with your wellness goals can be especially hard around this time of year, which is why I made sure to include a balance of complex carbs, healthy fats, and quality protein from ingredients like 310 Shake and frozen cauliflower rice. With 21g of plant-based proteins and 12g of dietary fiber, this shake is not only satisfying for your taste buds, but for your health as well. Trust me, I know hitting up the drive-thru is tempting with a packed schedule, but this shake takes just minutes to make and your body will thank you for it!

What You Need to Make this Shake

First, let’s take a look at the ingredients that are in this recipe. I use 310 Organic Peppermint Swirl, frozen cauliflower rice, unsweetened coconut milk, cacao powder, cacao nibs, vanilla extract, and ice. For a stronger peppermint flavor, you can swap out the vanilla extract for peppermint instead.

310 Organic Peppermint Swirl

Believe it or not, 310 Organic Peppermint Swirl is an incredibly versatile shake! It has the same creamy, vanilla bean base as 310 Vanilla, but with notes of peppermint that are subtle and not overpowering. This is a fun flavor to add to smoothies, coffee (my personal favorite), or even baked goods! Free from artificial ingredients and sugar, you can indulge your sweet tooth with confidence. It’s also vegan, keto, and paleo-friendly, making it an easy recommendation for a wide variety of lifestyles. 310 Organic Peppermint Swirl is a seasonal item, so here are some reasons to grab it before it’s gone!

• Crafted with top-quality vegan and organic ingredients
• Free from sugar, soy, dairy, gluten, nuts, and GMOs
• 15g of plant-based proteins from a blend of pumpkin, brown rice, and pea
• Contains antioxidant-packed superfoods including kale, broccoli, beet, ginger, turmeric, and more
