Smoothie King The Shredder® Strawberry

Want to make the Smoothie King The Shredder® Strawberry at home? This homemade copycat recipe uses easy ingredients you can find anywhere and tastes just like the store version. It’s simple, protein-packed, and perfect for a post‑workout boost.

How I Figured Out This Recipe

My first try was just frozen strawberries and protein powder—it was tasty, but way too thin. It didn’t have that thick, performance-drink texture I love from The Shredder®.
I solved it by adding half a frozen banana and a spoonful of Greek yogurt. That made it creamy and gave it that smooth, shake-like consistency, without masking the strawberry taste. That’s when it tasted just like the real thing!

The Shredder® Strawberry Ingredients

• 2 cups frozen strawberries: gives that bold, fresh strawberry flavor.
• ½ small frozen banana: adds creaminess while keeping carbs in check.
• 1 scoop vanilla or strawberry protein powder: boosts protein and complements the fruit.
• 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt: makes it thick, creamy, and satisfying.
• 1 tbsp chia or flax seeds: naturally thickens and adds fiber.
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or water: keeps it light and smooth.
• 1 cup ice: makes it frosty and refreshing like the store smoothie.

How to Make The Shredder® Strawberry (Copycat)

1. Add the fruit and protein: frozen strawberries, frozen banana, protein powder, Greek yogurt, chia or flax, and ice to your blender.
2. Pour in almond milk (or water): about 1 cup.
3. Blend until creamy: run on high until it’s thick, smooth, and well‑combined.
4. Taste and fix: too thick? add a splash more liquid. Not strawberry-y enough? toss in a few more berries or a drop of vanilla.
5. Serve immediately: drink it while it’s fresh and frosty!

Why This Tastes Like the Smoothie King Version

• Frozen strawberries give that bold, fresh berry flavor.
• Frozen banana and Greek yogurt make it thick without heavy ingredients.
• Protein powder adds that “performance” feel—filling and muscle-fueling.
• Chia or flax seeds mimic The Shredder®’s natural thickness and keep it fiber-rich.
• Ice gives it that cool, frothy finish like a smoothie you’d grab on the go.

Easy Tips and Swaps

• For vegan: use plant-based protein and a dairy-free yogurt.
• For nut-free: swap almond milk with oat or rice milk.
• For low-carb: skip the banana and add extra Greek yogurt or a few avocado chunks.
• Want more strawberry flavor? Add a handful of raspberries or strawberries on top before blending.

How to Store Your Smoothie

• In the Fridge: Seal in a jar and chill up to 24 hours. Shake or stir well before drinking because it may separate.
• In the Freezer: Freeze in ice-cube trays. To enjoy later, blend cubes with a splash of almond milk to recreate the smoothie fresh.
