    Recipe Tips
    For extra creaminess: Use frozen banana rather than pineapple and choose thick Greek yogurt.
    For a fresher flavour: Use frozen pineapple. It gives the shake a lighter, tropical twist.
    For more lemon flavour: Add another ½ teaspoon of finely grated zest rather than simply adding lots more lemon juice.
    For a dairy-free version: Use coconut or almond yogurt together with a plant-based vanilla protein powder.
