A simple and refreshing smoothie from a friend!
Thank you Melissa for the lovely combination! I've never actually had Black Forest cake, though I'm sure I would love it, and this drink sure hit the spot!
Black Forest Smoothie
1 cup water (so everything will blend)
2 cups fresh spinach (2 hearty handfuls)
1/4 c unsweetened cocoa (or less if you don't want a super strong chocolate flavor)
1 1/2 cups frozen, unsweetened cherries (I used a variety of 3 cherries in bag from Costco)
Blend and enjoy!
Makes 4 cups.
It was perfect right away -- chocolate-cherry yumminess with a milk shake consistency!
