Instructions for Dark Chocolate Cherry Smoothie
Combine all ingredients, except for the ice, in a blender, (I use a Ninja-Nutra Ninja Cup.) and blend until well-combined, turning off blender to scrape the sides as needed. Add ice and blend until smooth.
Pour into your favorite glass and enjoy! Smoothies are always better through a straw, they seem tastier that way.
