Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk ensure it is chilled
- 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder isoltate preferred for texture
- 0.25 tsp fine sea salt adjust to taste
- 0.5 tsp butter extract essential for the taffy flavor profile
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp sugar-free marshmallow syrup adds the chewy candy aroma

Notes
For a fruit-flavored taffy version (like strawberry or banana), add 1/4 cup of frozen fruit or 1/2 tsp of the corresponding fruit extract. If the shake is too thick, add a splash more almond milk. Store any leftovers in a popsicle mold for a frozen taffy treat.
