Ingredients

2 ripe bananas
2 tablespoons of cacao powder
1 cup of almond milk (or any plant-based milk of your choice)
1/2 cup of Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons of almond butter
1 scoop of chocolate protein powder
1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup (optional)
A handful of ice cubes

Instructions

• Begin by gathering all the ingredients listed in the recipe.
• Take out your trusty blender, ensuring it’s clean and ready for action.
• Carefully place each ingredient into the blender. Start with the 100% organic Nantli Cacao, followed by your preferred choice of milk or dairy-free alternative. Next, add the ripe banana slices and the smooth, creamy almond butter. To enhance the flavor profile, include a dash of pure vanilla extract, and for a hint of natural sweetness, toss in a pitted Medjool date. Finally, finish it off with a pinch of sea salt for that perfect balance.
• Secure the blender’s lid tightly, ready to unleash its blending prowess.
• Start the blending process at a low speed to combine the ingredients without a mess. Gradually increase the speed to high, allowing the mixture to whirl and whirl until it reaches the desired consistency. You’re aiming for a smooth and creamy texture that promises to tantalize your taste buds.
• Now, it’s time to channel your inner taste-tester. With a clean spoon, dip into the silky blend and savor the moment. If you prefer your smoothie a tad sweeter, this is the moment to shine. Drizzle in honey or maple syrup, one teaspoon at a time, blending briefly after each addition. Keep tasting until you’ve achieved your ideal level of sweetness.
• When you’re satisfied with the flavor, it’s time to serve up this delightful mix. Grab your favorite glasses or mugs – ones that make you feel truly special – and pour in the rich, chocolatey goodness.
• Gather your fellow enthusiasts or simply savor the solitude, and as you raise your glass, take a moment to appreciate the wonder of this 100% organic Nantli Cacao creation.
• With a sense of anticipation and gratitude, enjoy every sip of this nourishing masterpiece, savoring the harmonious blend of flavors and the nourishment it brings to your body and soul.
