Life is busy, and sometimes preparing balanced meals feels overwhelming, especially around workouts. This is where smoothies and shakes shine—they’re quick, portable, and can be packed with powerful nutrients.
But beware: not every shake is created equal. Many store-bought or quick recipes fall short on protein, overload on sugar, or lack the essential fats and fiber your body craves.
Our Super Shake Guide was designed to change that. It’s a simple, actionable tool that helps you mix and match ingredients for shakes that taste amazing and fuel your success—whether you need a breakfast on the go, a post-workout refuel, or a midday nutrient boost.
What Makes a Super Shake “Super”?
Here are the key building blocks you'll find in our guide, and why each matters:
1. Protein: The Muscle Builder and Hunger Fighter
Protein is vital for recovery and muscle growth, keeps you full longer, and helps stabilize blood sugar. We recommend sources like:
Whey or plant-based protein powders
Greek yogurt
Silken tofu
Nut butters and seeds
Aim for 25–50 grams per shake, adjusted to your goals and body weight.
2. Fruits and Vegetables: Nutrient Powerhouses
Fruits and veggies provide essential vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber. They aid digestion, reduce inflammation, and keep your immune system robust.
Add berries, bananas, spinach, kale, or avocado—our guide suggests combinations to balance taste and texture perfectly.
3. Healthy Fats: For Energy and Absorption
Healthy fats keep you energized, support hormone production, and help absorb fat-soluble vitamins. Include:
Avocado
Chia seeds
Flaxseeds
Nuts and nut butters
Coconut oil
A tablespoon or two adds creaminess and sustained energy.
4. Flavor & Texture Boosters: Make Every Sip a Delight
Vanilla extract, cinnamon, cacao powder, or a dash of cinnamon can transform a basic shake into a tasty treat you look forward to.
How to Use the Super Shake Guide
Our guide breaks down shake building into manageable, flexible steps so you can tailor every blend to your taste preferences and nutritional needs.
Step 1: Choose your protein base
Step 2: Pick your fruits and/or vegetables
Step 3: Add healthy fats
Step 4: Spice it up or sweeten it naturally
Step 5: Top with extras like seeds, oats, or superfoods for extra nutrition and texture
Try different combinations to discover what energizes your body best.

Ready to put the guide into action? Here’s one of Unity’s most-loved shake recipes—balanced, delicious, and easy to customize. Perfect for post-workout fuel, breakfast, or a satisfying snack!
🥤 Unity’s Berry Power Super Shake
Ingredients:
1 scoop vanilla or chocolate protein powder (whey or plant-based)
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your milk of choice)
½ cup frozen mixed berries
½ banana (for creaminess and natural sweetness)
1 tablespoon chia seeds or ground flaxseed (healthy fats & fiber)
1 tablespoon natural peanut or almond butter
Handful of spinach or kale (totally optional—but sneaks in nutrients without the taste)
2–3 ice cubes (if you want a chill, thicker texture)
Instructions:
Add all ingredients to a blender.
Blend until smooth and creamy (about 30 seconds).
Taste and adjust—add more berries for tartness, more banana for sweetness, or a splash more milk for a thinner consistency.
Pour into your favourite shaker cup or glass. Sip and enjoy your results!
Pro Tip: Double up on the greens or swap out berries for mango/pineapple for a tropical twist. Top with a sprinkle of granola for post-workout crunch!
