Dark Chocolate Mint Smoothie

Servings: 1 serving (16 ounces)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups spinach leaves, lightly packed
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1 scoop (30g) stevia sweetened chocolate whey protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons special dark cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon Truvia
  • 1 drop pure peppermint extract
  • 8 ice cubes

Method
 

  1. Add spinach, almond milk, protein powder, cocoa powder, Truvia, peppermint and ice cubes to the jar of a blender with ice-crushing ability. Make sure the lid is on tight. Blend the ingredients until they are relatively smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender with a rubber spatula as needed, about 20 seconds. Pour into a glass and serve immediately.

Peppermint extract is very strong — pour it into a small measuring spoon or dish before adding it to the blender; you only need a single drop.
