Chocolate Cherry Smoothie

A real crowd-pleaser!

Chocolate Cherry Smoothie Recipe
Makes 1 serving. 

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup prepared hot chocolate
  • 1 cup frozen raspberries

Instructions:
  1. Toss all ingredients in blender.
  2. Blend, serve and enjoy.

For this drink, I used instant hot chocolate and allowed it to cool overnight in the fridge. If your hot chocolate is not cooled down, you'll get a melty or watery smoothie. If the smoothie too thick, add a splash of almond (or whatever kind) milk.

This smoothie was so delicious, even the boyfriend (who is smoothie-picky) raved about it!

  • 1 Tbs agave nectar

Instructions:
  1. Toss all ingredients in blender.
  2. Blend, serve and enjoy.

For this drink, I used a unsweetened Almond Breeze original almond milk and agave as sweetener. The coffee must be room temperature or cooler for this recipe otherwise you'll get a lukewarm smoothie! Adding a teaspoon or two of vanilla extract is recommended.
