This ensures a smooth and well-mixed shake without clumps, enhancing the overall taste and texture of the drink.' Look for a shaker with a secure and leak-proof lid,' says Place. 'A good seal ensures that you can shake the shaker vigorously without worrying about spills or leaks.' Mixing mechanism

Measurement accuracy: 'Many protein shakers have measurement markings on the side, which helps you accurately measure the amount of liquid or protein powder needed for your desired serving size. This ensures that you can easily customise your protein shake to meet your specific nutritional requirements.'Add the plastic mesh insert, such as the one in the USN Shaker Bottle or the metallic shaker ball and then seal the lid, making sure it is closed tight!
