20 g collagen peptides, original, Vital Proteins

1 tsp multi-use syrup, Splenda

DIRECTIONS

In a blender, layer cold water, strawberries, collagen peptide powder, lime juice and liquid sweetener. Blend on high until strawberries are completely broken down and a nice froth as developed, about 1 minute. Taste and add sweetener if desired.

Cooking Tip

Agua fresca is the gently sweet, fruity water popular in Mexico that makes staying hydrated a delightful task. We added collagen peptides to get a protein boost that won’t leave you feeling overfull. This is a pretty simple recipe, and the amount of sweetener can be individualized based on your taste preference and the sweetness of the strawberries you use. Note that any liquid, no-sugar sweetener can be used for this recipe.
