Frosted Lemonade Shake

Ready to level up your summer sipping game? Meet our Frosted Lemonade Shake, your new sunny-day sidekick. This isn’t just lemonade. It’s a protein-packed, probiotic powerhouse made with real ingredients like fresh lemon juice, frozen banana, raw honey, and Lifeway Kefir for that silky-smooth texture you can’t fake. Want an extra boost? Toss in a scoop of vanilla protein or collagen peptides for a frosty shake that fuels your summer adventures.

To make this Frosted Lemonade Shake, we took real lemons (no concentrate here!), which are packed with vitamin C and flavonoids found in citrus fruits that promote a healthy heart. Lemons also contain natural fiber along with digestive enzymes that support digestion and liver health. Lemons and our kefir pair perfectly in this shake together since they’re both tart and tangy.

To add some natural sweetness, we used a frozen banana, a touch of vanilla, and a little raw honey (or you can sub with your favorite sweetener here). You can’t taste the banana, but it adds an extra layer of creaminess, sweetness, and underlying texture that makes this shake come together wonderfully.

The end result is a tart, naturally sweet treat filled to the brim with protein, probiotics, and natural fiber. It’s also rich in important minerals like magnesium, calcium, and potassium, along with vitamins A, C, D, and various B vitamins. So grab your blender, a bottle of Lifeway Kefir, a fresh batch of lemons, and blend up this Frosted Lemonade Shake with us!

The Benefits of Cultured Dairy for Better Health:

Research continues to show the importance of eating healthy foods, including cultured dairy such as kefir, for optimal digestion and gut health, a strong immune system, and to support the microbiome. Fermented foods like kefir hold important value in this line of research due to the link between the gut-brain axis and overall health. Specifically, kefir has been shown to help diversify the microbiome, improve digestion, reduce inflammation, support healthier blood sugar levels, and improve satiety since the bioavailable protein it contains triggers the release of GLP-1.

Lifeway Kefir is packed with variety of vital nutrients important for overall health, including bone and muscle health; these include vitamin D3, K, calcium, and vitamin B12. Along with our probiotic-rich kefir, Lifeway also offers artisan-made Farmer Cheese, a creamy high-protein cheese made with live and active cultures to support healthy muscles and healthy microbiome. Lifeway Farmer Cheese is easy to spread, free of gums and thickeners, and contains no added salt or sugar for optimal health benefits.
