Can You Put Collagen in Smoothies?

Yes — collagen mixes well into smoothies, and it's one of the easiest places to use it. Plain peptides dissolve into the liquid, and because a smoothie already has flavor and texture from fruit, yogurt, or milk, you won't notice the collagen at all. Just add a scoop with your other ingredients and blend.

It's a convenient way to fold a specific protein into a drink you're already making, alongside whatever else you put in — fruit, greens, nut butter, or a complete protein powder. Collagen and a regular protein powder can go in the same smoothie since they serve different roles. For cold blends especially, blending (rather than hand-stirring) ensures it disperses fully.
