How to Make a Cherry Smoothie with Cacao

First, make sure to gather your ingredients to make a chocolate cherry smoothie. 

Then in a powerful blender add the cherries and ice cubes. Pulse slightly to chop. 

After you slightly chop the frozen cherries and ice go ahead and add the remaining ingredients (minus the liquids).

I always like to add protein powder to my smoothie recipes. This ingredient is optional, but if you are looking for a tasty organic vegan protein and vitamin plant-based protein powder then this is the one that I use daily: HERE (I have both the vanilla and chocolate flavored). 

Next, pour the almond milk and water on top. 

Blend until smooth and then portion into one large jar or two small jars to share with a friend or loved one. My kids love to steal my smoothies so sometimes I made a little extra to share with them.  

Enjoy immediately!
