4 Summer Shakes, 'Merica Style - BlenderBottle
Summer's here, and before you know it we'll be celebrating Flag Day (June 14) and July Fourth. It's a season thick with patriotism, paying homage to the red, white, and blue. And just in time, we've launched our June Color of the Month bottle: AMERICA. It's a bottle designed to inspire the patriot in you.

So hoist your flag, pull on your favorite faded blue jeans, crank up the BBQ, and kick off a celebration of the good 'ol U-S-of-A. But before you crack open a cold one, get some protein in your belly with one of these American-style summer shakes.

Let freedom ring or at least let it fill your shaker cup with this red, white, and blue-inspired yogurt shake:

6 oz. water
  1. Add water to your BlenderBottle shaker cup.
  2. Add raspberry yogurt (RED), vanilla protein powder (WHITE), and blueberry yogurt (BLUE).
