I love getting fresh cherries in the summer, but if you don’t feel like pitting 1/3 cup for this smoothie, I totally understand. Frozen cherries work perfectly fine for this smoothie and honestly help to keep your smoothie super cold and thick… the more frozen ingredients, the better in my opinion. Especially on these steamy hot days! If you’ve never added coffee to a smoothie before, it’s time to start. I started doing this a couple of years ago when I needed a kick of caffeine but also wanted to get some good nutrients in to start my day! Coffee alone can cause a blood sugar spike, so pairing it with fruit, almond milk and protein powder really balance out the drink.
Ingredients in This Cherry Mocha Smoothie:
banana – use frozen to make sure your smoothie is icy cold cherries – fresh or frozen both work great! coffee – I like using cold brew coffee because it’s less acidic and has a smooth flavor unsweetened vanilla almond milk almond butter – this adds a nice richness to the smoothie and some healthy fats chocolate protein powder – this is what gives the smoothie the mocha flavor! liquid stevia – optional but a great option if you want to add extra sweetness without any added sugar
As with most smoothie recipes, all you have to do is throw all of the ingredients in a high-powered blender and blend away! Enjoy immediately.
