Frozen cherries make this doable in winter and also make it more economical. For one large smoothie (or two smaller ones), I use half a pound of frozen cherries, a large handful of fresh spinach, 2-3 tablespoons of cocoa powder (start with two and see if you need it more chocolatey), 1 banana, and just enough water to get it to the consistency I like. That’s a personal thing. Some people like their smoothies runny. I like mine more like a milkshake. I just use water here, but you can use nut milk if you want a creamier texture.  Personally, I find the banana makes it creamy enough so I stick with water.

And that’s it! Blend it up in your blender or smoothie maker and enjoy!

Batching Tip for Smoothies!

I make several of these at one time and freeze them in mason jars (individual servings).  If I plan them for breakfast, I pull one out and put it in the refrigerator at night.  In the morning all it needs is a quick shaking of the jar and it’s the perfect consistency!
