Before You Start

Measure the cocoa and chia, peel the banana, and have the oat milk poured so it blends in one go.

How To Make It
  1. Add the frozen cherries, banana, cocoa powder, oat milk, and chia seeds to a blender.
  2. Blend on high until completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed.
  3. Pour into a tall glass, and if it is too thick loosen it with a splash more oat milk.
  4. Drink it cold.
Fix It: If it tastes bitter from the cocoa, blend in a little more banana or a drop of maple to balance it.
