Calories 356cal
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen cherries (tart are my fav!)
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 large pitted medjool dates
- ½ cup plain greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ¼-½ cup dairy free milk (almond is my fav!), plus more as needed
- ½ cup ice
Instructions
- First soak your pitted dates in 1 cup of very warm water for at least 5 minutes. This will help them soften up and perfect for blending. While the dates are soaking you can get all your other ingredients out, measured and ready.
- Add all ingredients to a high powered blender: frozen cherries, lime zest, lime juice, pitted dates, greek yogurt, vanilla, milk, and ice. Feel free to add any optional add-ins to your smoothie if you’d like. Blend until smooth, adding more milk to thin, if necessary. Pour into a glass and enjoy!
Notes
To make dairy free: simply use your favorite dairy free yogurt. I love siggi's plant-based yogurt!
