Sore Throat Soothing Shake

May 27, 2016 · 16 Comments

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This past week was rough – I had a sore throat that just kept getting worse. One day my husband came home from work and surprised me by making this sore throat soothing shake, and I gotta tell you – it worked! My throat was soothed, I just had to share this recipe with you for this weeks’ five ingredient Friday (because as you know, I’m ALL about five ingredient recipes!)

The best sore throat soothing shake you can make this image

Earlier this week I had a tickle in my throat. I thought I had eaten too much garlic or something (does too much garlic make anyone else feel that way sometimes? Anyway, my throat kept feeling worse and worse and I woke up and could barely breathe!  I went to work but then left an hour early to come home (something I never do). My husband came home and was russling around in the kitchen and then brought me this smoothie. How sweet is that?
The best ingredients to make a sore throat soothing shakeHe said he had researched and put together things that were soothing for a sore throat, and he was spot on. I shared behind the scenes of how my hubby made this on snapchat (username: Sweetphi – are we friends on snapchat yet? I hope we are – snap me, I’d love to connect).
The most amazing sore throat soothing shake

The sore throat soothing shake is made of almond milk, vanilla ice cream, ice cubes, honey, and a banana – all blended together for a cold soothing smoothie shake. Top it with some cinnamon an seriously, soooo good. It tastes like a horchata and is so soothing.
The one and only sore throat soothing shakeSore throat or not, this is one delicious shake.

    Can I leave the banana out? We don’t have any. Or if there’s a substitute what is it?

      You could leave the banana out…I would honestly say you can substitute any fruit …perhaps mango or pineapple (if you have any!)

    I have strep throat and have been looking for any and everything I can consume that will help my throat. Nothing is helping except cough drops and those are not delicious. I made this and I must say it very good! It does taste like horchata, which is nice.

    […] Ok, so lets talk jars, shall we? I happen to have some .5 liter Weck glass jars because I love the looks of them because they photograph really well, but they’re also really useful because they can be used when canning or making quick pickles (like these quick pickled vegetables I’ve been dying to make again!) I also have a bunch of 16oz Mason jars that I love using for smoothies (like for this 5 ingredient green power smoothie or this soothing shake). […]

This meatball Caesar pizza is a fun pizza topping This meatball Caesar pizza is a fun pizza topping combo that combines best of both worlds: meatballs and tangy Caesar dressing 🤩
TIP: I used Costco frozen meatballs which have a little heat to them. If your meatballs are on the plainer side, I’d recommend adding a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes!
