Iced mocha smoothie

May 16, 2013 | byVanessa Perrone

Iced mocha smoothie

I hadn’t had an iced coffee in years. Not long ago, I stole a sip from a friend of mine and couldn’t get over how cloyingly sweet it was. Way sweeter than I remembered it being back when I used to drink them as a teen. But I guess that isn’t surprising, given the  amount of sugar the average iced frap packs. In today’s video, you’ll see just how much sugar that is, along with a recipe for an iced mocha smoothie, as a healthier, more balanced and naturally sweeter alternative to your commercially chilled brew.

 

Iced Mocha Smoothie

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup almond milk

  • 3 dates

  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt

  • 2 teaspoons raw cacao

  • 1/4 cup brewed coffee, chilled

  • 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • 4 ice cubes

Method

  1. In a blender, combine all ingredients except ice and blend until smooth.

  2. Add ice, pulse and serve with a sprinkle of cinnamon and sip away!

Enjoy.
