Strawberry Nice Cream Shake (vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar-free)

This vegan, gluten-free and refined sugar-free Strawberry Nice Cream Shake is the perfect, healthy treat for the summer! 3 ingredients only!

I’ve been vegan for 4 years now, so obviously I always have frozen bananas in the freezer. And I totally recommend you keep a stash of frozen bananas in the freezer too! Because frozen bananas are perfect for nice cream (simply process them in a food processor and you will have the most amazing banana ice cream) and other creamy smoothies and nice cream shakes, like this one. It always blows my mind when people don’t know about nice cream… :)

This vegan, gluten-free and refined sugar-free Strawberry Nice Cream Shake is the perfect, healthy treat for the summer! You’ll only need 3 ingredients for the shake. If you want to top it with my super simple chocolate sauce, that’s another 3 ingredients, you’ll have a super awesome chocolate drizzled shake with only 6 ingredients!

And it only takes a few minutes to make. The bananas and strawberries make it sweet enough (at least for me), so you probably won’t need any additional sweeteners.

For best results, I recommend using a high-speed blender. I’ve used my Omniblend V, which I love. Less powerful blenders will probably not be able to process the frozen banana chunks completely.
