- 1/4 cup Torani® sugar-free vanilla syrup
- 2 teaspoons root beer extract
- 1/2 cup diet root beer soda

Helpful hints
- Select almond milk or other milk substitute without phosphate additives. Check labels and ingredient list or ask your dietitian about recommended products.
- When soda is added mixture will foam, so add slowly and stop until bubbles reduce if needed to prevent bubbling over.
- A & W® diet root beer and Barq's® diet root beer are acceptable brands of root beer for a kidney diet because there are no phosphate additives.
- If Syntrax Nectar® whey protein powder is unavailable, ask your dietitian for an appropriate substitute. EAS® 100% whey protein powder is an option and provides approximately 13 grams of protein per scoop.
