World Plant Milk Day: Your Excuse to Upgrade Your Shakes and Smoothies

Every August 22nd, we get a gentle nudge from the calendar: World Plant Milk Day. But instead of just treating it as another “food awareness” event, why not use it as an opportunity to explore what plant milks can actually do, especially in the drinks you’re probably already having every day?

So, whether you’re blending up your morning smoothie or just trying to get your protein in post- gym, plant milks can completely change the game. They’re more than substitutes for dairy, think of them as flavor upgrades, texture enhancers, and nutrient-rich additions that can level up your whole routine.

Let’s break it down into two parts:

• First: How plant milks work in protein shakes
• Second: How to make next-level smoothies and blends with them

And yes, we’ll be using this as an opportunity to talk about the various drinkware options to help you get it all done.

Sometimes you’re not in the mood to chop, blend, or prep. You just want your protein fast, cold, smooth, and delicious. That’s where a good shaker bottle come in.

But here’s the truth most people miss: the liquid you choose can make all the difference.

If you’re still mixing your protein with plain water or skim milk, maybe it’s time to break free. Plant milks can give you better taste, creamier texture, and added nutritional benefits, all without any animal products or potentially gut-wrecking lactose.

Perfect for flawless mixes. No clumps. No mess. Just a single button and you're sipping a smooth, cold shake with proper consistency, whether you're using whey, vegan protein, or greens powder.

Want to mix in style? This is it. It’s got that premium, matte-metal look with a silicone grip sleeve for ultimate comfort. Feels great in your hand. Makes protein feel a little more intentional.

Let’s run through the heavy hitters and why they work:

• Creamy, neutral, and smooth
• Natural sweetness makes most proteins taste better
• Great with vanilla, chocolate, and caramel flavors

• Light, slightly nutty, and lower in calories
• Great for mixing with chocolate, berry, or peanut butter proteins
• Doesn’t overpower your flavor

• Higher in protein than most plant milks
• Slightly thicker texture
• Excellent for muscle-building mixes or when you want a fuller shake

• Light and tropical
• Best with fruity or tropical-flavored proteins (like mango, pineapple, or banana)

• Mild taste, high in protein
• Good for those needing more protein from the base liquid
• Mixes great with earthy or nutty powders

Here are a few no-blender, no-fuss ideas you can whip up in your PROMiXX PRO or PURSUIT:

• 300ml soy milk
• 1 scoop chocolate plant-based protein
• Mix in PROMiXX PRO
• Optional: dash of cinnamon

• 250ml oat milk
• 1 scoop vanilla protein
• Optional: teaspoon instant coffee or matcha
• Shake in PURSUIT bottle for a smooth, energizing drink

• 300ml coconut milk
• 1 scoop mango or pineapple protein
• Shake and sip. That’s it.

Now let’s get into the blending side of the game.

When you’ve got more time, or you just want something extra refreshing, cold, and nutrient-packed, a smoothie is your go-to. And when it comes to portable blending, nothing beats the PROMiXX SENSE Intelligent Blender.

This thing isn’t just your average portable blender, it’s smart. We’re talking:

• One-touch blending cycles
• Rechargeable power that you can take anywhere
• Bi-directional blades for both blending and mixing
• On-board computer makes it the blender with a brain, achieving the perfect consistency
• Easy clean-up

All of the plant milks we’ve mentioned above still apply, but when it comes to smoothies, texture and flavor really matter. So here’s how to pick:

• Makes your smoothie thick without banana overload
• Pairs well with anything chocolate, cinnamon, or nut butter-based

• Great with frozen berries or tropical fruits
• Adds subtle sweetness

• Keeps things light if you’re adding rich ingredients like peanut butter or avocado

• Perfect if you’re blending fruit with vegan protein powder

All of these can be blended in your PROMiXX SENSE in no time at all. Just add, blend, go.

• 250ml oat milk
• 1 handful spinach
• 1⁄2 banana
• 1 scoop vanilla protein
• Ice cubes Blend + Go

• 300ml almond milk
• 1 scoop chocolate protein
• 1 tbsp peanut butter
• 1⁄2 frozen banana
• Dash of sea salt Blend for a dessert-level recovery drink

• 250ml coconut milk
• 1 scoop of mango protein
• 1⁄2 cup frozen pineapple
• Handful of kale or mint Blend and start your day light and fresh

The next time someone says, “Aren’t plant milks just a fad?” hand them a properly blended oat milk protein smoothie and wait for their face to change.
