Ingredients

1 cup frozen sweet cherries (pitted)
½ frozen banana
¼ cup frozen raspberries
1 tablespoon raw cacao powder
½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
2 tablespoons collagen peptides (optional)
1 cup milk of choice

Instructions

Add the frozen cherries, banana, raspberries, cacao powder, vanilla extract, collagen (if using), and milk to a high-speed blender. Secure the lid and blend until the mixture is smooth.
Once everything is blended smoothly, taste the mixture and make any adjustments needed. You can add a teaspoon of maple syrup for a sweeter taste, or a little extra cacao powder for more chocolate flavor. Then serve the smoothie right away for the best texture.

Notes

Nutrition information is for the whole batch. This is automatically calculated using generic ingredients from a database, so it's just an estimate and not a guarantee.

Flavor Variation: For a cherry almond flavor, substitute the vanilla extract with 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract.

Vegan Note: For a plant-based smoothie, use your favorite dairy-free milk and add hemp hearts instead of collagen for protein.
