Need a healthier alternative to the original Oreo shake?

  • There is an Oreo smoothie. 
  • You have a lighter, more protein-rich version of your favourite drink by swapping out the ice cream with yogurt and only using half the number of Oreos used in the milkshake.

Ingredients:

  • 3 Oreo Cookies
  • One cup of vanilla yogurt. Greek yogurt works wonderfully.
  • One cup of milk or almond milk for a dairy-free version
  • Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions:

  • Crush the Oreos, yogurt, and milk well.
  • For added thickness, you can add ice cubes.
  • Pour in a glass and have a healthy Oreo drink.

This is an Oreo smoothie that would still give you the great taste of the Oreo cookie but with fewer sugars and more nutrients. Perfect for breakfast or snack time when you want something sweet but not heavy on the stomach.

Vanilla Oreo Milkshake

  • If you are a vanilla fan but want something extra that brings in the originality of the best worlds, then this vanilla Oreo milkshake will be just the thing for you.
  • You can use vanilla Oreos or any vanilla flavoured ice cream to go off the traditional way slightly.

  • A strawberry Oreo milkshake comes up with the classic Oreo flavour, bringing out the freshness of strawberry flavours for an improved fruity taste.
