2 cups unsweetened almond milk
1/2 tablespoon raw cacao powder
NuNaturals Stevia to taste
Description
This thick, satisfying smoothie is packed with antioxidants and flavor. I love acai berries, not just for how great they are for you, but for their complex, wonderful flavor that tastes like a cross between red wine and chocolate.
Directions
Blend frozen acai berries, almond milk, raw cacao powder and stevia.
Using a good blender, blend the acai and almond milk at low speed until you’ve broken down the Acai, then move to a higher speed. Once it is smooth, use the Stevia. Add the ½ of an avocado if to make a denser snack or desert.
Notes
You can also add ½ avocado to thicken the smoothie.
