Vanilla Coffee Frappe Whey Protein Smoothie

Ingredients
1/4 c. whole milk
3/4 c. 2% plain Greek yogurt
1.5 t. vanilla extract
2 t. instant espresso powder
1/2 t. stevia powder, optional
1/2 c. ice cubes (or 1/2 c. sliced frozen banana, not included in nutrition info)
1/8 t. ground cinnamon, optional
1 drop almond extract, optional
1-2 scoops whey protein powder, enough to add 20g protein

Directions
Blend and enjoy!

DIY Smoothie Pack Directions
Blend everything except the milk, protein powder, and fruit and freeze in silicon 1 oz. ice cube trays. 6 cubes + protein powder in a zipper bag.  Freeze.  Empty the bag into a blender.  Add 1/2 c. liquid and you have frozen yogurt / soft serve you have to eat with a spoon!  Let the smoothie pack contents thaw before blending if you have an older blender, or want a less thick smoothie.  Adding the protein powder thickens and "bulks" the smoothie and I haven't measured how it changes the volume in my DIY smoothie cubes.
