Ingredients

  • 1 cup Fairlife skim milk
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder - I love PEScience Gourmet Vanilla - use code BAILEY at checkout to save money on all products
  • 1 tbsp sugar free vanilla jello pudding mix
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 can diet root beer

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients except root beer to the ninja creami pint container up to the max fill line and mix well with hand held frother.
  • Freeze container for 24 hours until frozen solid.
  • Remove frozen pint, run under hot water for 60 seconds and install into your machine. It’s important that your pint has a level surface, otherwise it can damage the blade. 
  • For the first spin, press lite Ice Cream button. Remove the outer bowl lid. If ice cream is still powdery, then add back to machine and press respin button.
  • Check ice cream. The final product should be creamy and have a smooth texture. If your desired consistency isn’t reached you can add a bit more liquid and spin again on the respin setting. 
  • Scoop a few big ice cream scoops into a tall glass.
  • Slowly pour the Diet A&W Root Beer over the ice cream. Watch it fizz and foam up.
    Grab a spoon and a straw and dive into that creamy, fizzy goodness!
