Chocolate Mocha Smoothie

Chocolate Mocha Smoothie

There's a particular moment, somewhere between two and four in the afternoon, where you want coffee and you want chocolate and you don't especially want to choose. This is that drink.

Our Chocolate Mocha Smoothie takes five minutes and a blender. Frozen banana creates a smooth and creamy texture, Collagen Coffee brings an energy boost, Naked Chocolat brings the chocolatey richness, and almond butter rounds the whole thing. Add Medjool dates for a sweetener, though stevia works if you'd rather keep it lighter.

Both cacao and our Naked Chocolat (depending on which you use) provide a source of antioxidants, banana contributes potassium, almond butter adds healthy fats, and the dates bring natural sweetness with fibre alongside it. Add a tablespoon of protein powder if you want it to keep you satisfied until dinner.
