    Why this recipe works

    This Cherry Chocolate Smoothie is rich and creamy, with a delicious chocolate flavor. The cherries add a lovely sweetness and color to the smoothie, making it a beautiful breakfast option.

    This cherry smoothie is made without bananas. And the addition of dark frozen cherries will give sweetness and texture to the smoothie.

    You can customize this a little bit by mixing a few grams of protein by changing the non-dairy milk.

    These delicious chocolate cherry smoothies are Dairy-free, Paleo-friendly, and Vegan.

    You can make this easy cherry smoothie with fresh cherries as well as frozen cherries. Just pit the cherries and add them to the blender with the rest of the ingredients.

    Ingredients note

    Cherry chocolate smoothie ingredients are on the counter top.

    Cacao powder: I like to use raw cacao powder in this cherry smoothie recipe. Cacao powder is less processed than cocoa powder and has a higher concentration of antioxidants and a stronger chocolatey flavor.

    If you don't have cacao powder, you can substitute it with unsweetened cocoa powder.

    Dark sweet cherries: I love using dark sweet cherries in this recipe because they are naturally sweet and have a lovely deep red color. You can use frozen or fresh cherries in this recipe.

    If you can't find dark sweet cherries, you can substitute them with regular sweet cherries or even tart cherries.

    Plant-based milk: I like to use unsweetened almond milk in this cherry smoothie recipe, but any plant-based milk will work. Coconut milk adds a little tropical flavor.

    Switching to soy milk or oat milk would increase the protein content, but be sure to use unsweetened milk.

    That way you only get the healthy fats from milk and not the processed sugar.

    Oats: I add oats to this smoothie for some extra fiber and nutrients. You can omit the oats if you'd like, or substitute them with other healthy ingredients like ground flax seeds, chia seeds, or hemp seeds.

    Agave syrup: Agave syrup is a natural sweetener that I like to use in this recipe. You can substitute agave syrup with other natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup.

    Recipe FAQ's

    Can I make this smoothie ahead of time?

    Yes, you can make this smoothie ahead of time. Simply blend all the ingredients together and store them in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. You could also throw them in the freezer and enjoy a freezer smoothie pack later.

    What other fruits can I add to this Cherry Chocolate Smoothie?

    You could add a handful of spinach for some extra nutrients. For a sweeter smoothie, add a banana or dates.

    Can I make this Cherry smoothie without oats?

    Yes, you can omit the oats from this recipe if you'd like. The smoothie will still be delicious!
