Smoothie King Pure Recharge Strawberry Recipe

Pure Recharge Strawberry is a light, refreshing smoothie made with strawberries, pear juice, natural caffeine, protein, and electrolytes. The original Smoothie King version delivers about 181mg of caffeine per 20 oz serving with no added sugar.

This homemade copycat recreates the same clean energy and fruity flavor using simple, easy-to-find ingredients perfect for pre-workout or mid-morning focus.

Ingredients Needed for Pure Recharge Strawberry (Copycat Recipe)

• 1 cup frozen strawberries: gives a bright, fresh base
• ½ cup pear juice (no sugar added): mimics the Smoothie King juice blend
• 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored whey protein: replaces their protein blend
• 1 scoop natural pre-workout powder (~180mg caffeine): replaces Pure Recharge® Enhancer
• ¼ tsp sea salt or electrolyte powder: mimics the electrolyte blend
• ½ tsp multivitamin powder (optional): covers the nutrient blend
• ½ cup cold water or ice: helps thin and chill the smoothie

How To Make Smoothie King Pure Recharge Strawberry (Copycat Recipe)

1. Add to Blender: Combine strawberries, pear juice, protein powder, caffeine enhancer, electrolyte mix, and water or ice.
2. Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high for 30–45 seconds until smooth and creamy. Add more ice or juice to adjust texture.

How This Copycat Matches the Original Smoothie

This homemade version matches the original’s clean taste and energy profile. Frozen strawberries recreate the fresh berry flavor, and pear juice keeps it naturally sweet without adding sugar. We use a natural pre-workout to mirror the 181mg of caffeine found in Smoothie King’s version, while a scoop of clean protein covers the 7g of protein.

Sea salt or electrolyte powder mimics their electrolyte blend, and the optional multivitamin powder adds wellness support just like the real thing.
