Tips & Notes

All protein powders are different and might require a different amount of water. If you use a whey or collagen-based protein powder, you will likely need more than 1/3 cup. We tested with Bulletproof Vanilla Collagen Protein Powder and Vital Proteins Vanilla Protein Powder and needed to use an extra 2.5 tablespoons of protein powder and no water.
