Cherry Chocolate Vitality Smoothie Alert!
Every bite we take is an opportunity to flood our body with vitality — and this smoothie is no exception.
I created this recipe to support our natural rhythms of healing, balance, and energy. The tart cherries help calm inflammation and support recovery (hello, deep healing and better sleep!). The fiber slows sugar release beautifully, giving you stable, grounded energy instead of spikes and crashes.
If you’re working on blood sugar balance, lowering inflammation, or just craving a chocolatey treat that actually loves you back — this one’s for you!
Collagen Boost Smoothie Recipe
Ingredients:
• 1 cup frozen organic tart cherries
• 1 small handful spinach or baby greens (optional for added minerals)
• 1 tablespoon raw cacao powder (rich in magnesium + antioxidants)
• 1 tablespoon h**p seeds (fiber + healthy fats)
• 1 scoop collagen peptides (optional for skin, joints, and repair)
• 1/2 teaspoon Ceylon cinnamon (supports blood sugar balance)
• 1 cup unsweetened h**p milk or Good Karma flax milk
• 1/2 cup filtered water (adjust for thickness)
• 4–5 ice cubes
• 1–2 teaspoons monk fruit or stevia (optional, to taste)
• Tiny pinch of full mineral salt (like Real Salt)
Instructions:
1. In a high-speed blender, add the cherries, greens (if using), cacao powder, h**p seeds, collagen, cinnamon, h**p milk, and water.
2. Blend on high until smooth and creamy.
3. Add ice and blend again for a frosty, thick smoothie.
4. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed with monk fruit or stevia.
5. Pour into your favorite glass, sprinkle a few extra h**p seeds on top if you’d like, and enjoy immediately for maximum vitality.
