High Calorie Smoothie to Bulk (700+ calories & 39g protein )

Are you tired of consuming excessive calories just to gain weight? Look no further!

We have a simple, yet delicious high calorie smoothie recipe that’s perfect for achieving your goals.

With just a few ingredients and a blender, you can say goodbye to mass gainer powder and indulge in a flavorsome treat.

Why these Ingredients?

Frozen Fruit

Rather than using fresh fruit, frozen fruit will give the smoothie a colder and smooth ice cream-like texture instead of thick juice. If that’s what you want, then fresh fruit works great too.

The fruit itself also doesn’t bring too many calories to the smoothie, but it does give your drink flavor and texture while providing vitamins and minerals.

Fairlife Whole Milk

Milk will be the liquid base to blend everything together. I like to use Fairlife whole milk because it’s high in calories (150 calories per cup), has double the protein of standard whole milk (13g per cup), and it’s lactose-free.

Bear Naked Granola

Granola is a great way to add calories and whole grains. This granola in particular comes with 10.5g of whole grains (per 1/4 cup) and a bit of protein (5g per 1/4 cup).

Along with the calories, the almonds in this granola add flavor and texture to the smoothie.

Peanut Butter

Another great way to sneak in some calories is to use peanut butter. Just 2 tablespoons of peanut butter has almost 200 calories and 8g of protein.

Peanut butter is a game changer for bulking as it is calorie-dense and delicious. (Unless you have a peanut gallery, then stay away).

Honey (Optional)

Honey is an optional ingredient, but it does add some sweetness to the drink if you like.

How to Build Your Own High-Calorie Smoothie

When it comes to making a homemade mass gainer smoothie, it doesn’t have to be 1,000+ calories. Gaining weight and putting on muscle takes time and shouldn’t be rushed.

So while drinking a massive amount of calories sounds nice, it’s often tough to stick with.

Here are a few things I like to follow when making high-calorie smoothies:

• 600-800 Calories

• Taste Good to You

• 25g+ of Protein

• Fits within Dietary Restrictions

600 to 800 calories tends to be the sweet spot for me and it’s been less dreadful to drink. The smoothie is great for not having to eat a full-on meal so it doesn’t have to be anything crazy.

Taste is a big thing for many and it could be what decides whether or not you are consistent. Even if the smoothie recipe in this article isn’t something you like, pick some ingredients you do to make sure you can reach your goals.

Another important factor is protein. We need above-average amounts of protein to build muscle so make sure the smoothie you make has enough.

Lastly, make sure it’s something you can consume without dying or going against your beliefs. Whether it is a nut allergy, lactose intolerance, or a lifestyle choice, pick ingredients that work for you.
