But get it wrong, and you can throw your keto plan off for the day.
Well, no more! Today, we are here with the answers you need. We have 20 delicious keto smoothie and low-carb shake recipes you need to try.
Let’s dive straight in with our list to show you all the wonderful smoothies you could be sipping on!
1. Berries And Cream Keto Protein Smoothie
First up, we have this tasty and filling smoothie! It’s packed full of raspberries and coconut, giving you plenty of fiber, antioxidants, and anti-fungal properties.
The collagen in the smoothie helps to add protein to the smoothie.
Not only will this help you feel fuller for longer but is wonderful for your joints, nails, hair, and skin.
It’s worth giving this smoothie a try, especially if you love the freshness of raspberries and the creaminess of coconut milk!
2. Strawberry Avocado Keto Smoothie
Next, we have this delicious strawberry avocado smoothie. It’s refreshing, creamy, light, and bursting with strawberry goodness!
To make the smoothie, you only need monk fruit sweetener, almond milk, avocado, and strawberries.
You can use frozen strawberries too, which can be cheaper and saves you the hassle of chopping them! If you love Jamba Juice, this is the smoothie for you!
3. Keto Chocolate Smoothie
If you want a chocolatey hit for breakfast, then this keto chocolate smoothie is for you! Although it isn’t technically a milkshake, it has that creamy, chocolatey, and cold feel of a classic milkshake.
Thanks to the avocado in the smoothie, it is full of fiber, healthy fats, and potassium. Make sure the avocado is ripe with no black spots.
This ensures that you can blend the smoothie well, without there being any bitter taste to your smoothie!
4. Quick And Easy Peppermint Milkshake
Next, we have this delicious peppermint milkshake that is perfect for the festive season! Not only is this milkshake low-carb and keto-friendly, but it is packed full of delicious flavors.
The peppermint extract works beautifully with the vanilla ice cream and milk, giving you a creamy and minty breakfast or dessert.
You can make the recipe vegan too by using dairy-free milk and ice cream, but be sure to check the macros of these ingredients to ensure the milkshake remains keto-friendly!
5. Banana Strawberry Lettuce Smoothie
We know this combo might sound a little odd, but trust us, this smoothie is super tasty! It’s also super easy to make and a good way to use up any lettuce that is going off.
Don’t forget to add some protein powder to this smoothie to help fill you up for longer.
Don’t worry if you don’t like protein powder, as strawberries, bananas, and almond milk will mask the taste!
6. Keto Lemon Cheesecake Smoothie

The smoothie is creamy, tangy, and super thick!
