Yogurt and Milk Drinks: The Power of Smoothies
Why should you add milk and yogurt to your smoothies? Smoothies are most popular for being delicious and fun yogurt and milk drinks. Using real milk provides a creamy texture to your smoothies. While ice can make your smoothie cold, it won’t bring a thicker texture to your smoothie either.
Yogurt and Milk Drinks: Creaminess is Key
In addition to its creamy texture, choosing real milk provides benefits you may not know about! One 8-ounce glass of milk naturally provides essential nutrients like four B vitamins to help you energize and 8 grams of high-quality protein to help you refuel and build lean muscle. Without all the additives found in alternative beverages, milk supports wellness in a more natural way.

For those choosing smoothies as part of exercise recovery, real milk yet again can be a good addition to your blended creation. With 8 grams of complete protein per 8-ounce serving, milk helps you build muscle, stay active, and recover. Milk’s natural, high-quality protein can’t be matched by most alternatives. Compared to plant proteins, proteins from milk are more complete, higher-quality, and less processed.
