Here’s a slight twist on my favorite cherry smoothie. This one is a bit creamier from the coconut milk that tends to mellow it out. It’s really easy if you’ve already prepared the pitted cherries!
- 1 to 1 ½ cups coconut milk with vanilla flavoring
- About 1 inch pineapple (in this case 2 but only half the round)
- A few small dates (in this case about 6 to counter the pineapple)
- About 2 cups cherries (the more the better!)
- One bowl fresh garden Swiss chard
If you’ve got a great high powered blender, stack it all up like this:
And then give it a whirl for about 60 seconds. That is, after you’ve used the tamper to press the greens down into the blades and the entire mixture is turning on its own. Eventually, you’ll have a bit more than a quart to enjoy!
If you find a cherry smoothie combination that really stands out, I’d like to hear about it. I’ve always got a few extra little cherries sitting around just waiting to be enjoyed in a great new taste senstation!
Have a great day!
