1 cup water, ½ cup vanilla whey protein powder
Pour whey mix into the popsicle molds. Adjust strawberries, if necessary.
Cover, and add wooden sticks.

Notes

Ingredient Notes:

Use a smooth-blending vanilla protein powder. I used vanilla whey concentrate.

A whey/casein blend will also work. With plant-based protein powder, the mouthfeel might be a bit too grainy and the texture too icy.
