STRAWBERRY & CHOCOLATE SMOOTHIE

Strawberry & Chocolate Smoothie Recipe


Strawberry & Chocolate Smoothie Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries
  • 1 medium banana (for creaminess)
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy, such as almond or oat milk)
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened)
  • 1–2 tbsp honey, maple syrup, or sweetener of choice (optional)
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (optional for extra creaminess and protein)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • A handful of ice cubes (optional, for a colder smoothie)
  • Optional toppings: whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or sliced strawberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients

    • Wash and hull the strawberries. If using frozen strawberries, no need to thaw.

  2. Blend

    • In a blender, combine the strawberries, banana, milk, cocoa powder, sweetener, yogurt (if using), and vanilla extract.
    • Blend on high until smooth and creamy.

  3. Adjust Consistency

    • If the smoothie is too thick, add more milk a little at a time until you reach your desired consistency.

  4. Serve

    • Pour into a glass and serve immediately.

  5. Optional Toppings

    • Add whipped cream, sprinkle chocolate shavings, or garnish with a fresh strawberry on the rim for an extra touch.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, add 1 tbsp of peanut butter or almond butter.
  • For added nutrition, toss in a handful of spinach (the chocolate flavor will mask the greens).
  • Make it a dessert smoothie by adding a scoop of chocolate ice cream!

Enjoy your delicious strawberry & chocolate smoothie! 🍓🍫
