  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 2 tbsp almond butter
  • 1/2 tsp almond extract

Liquids and Others

  • 3/4 cup almond milk
  • 6 ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Place all ingredients into a blender in the order listed, starting with frozen cherries, frozen banana, ice cubes, protein powder, Greek yogurt, almond butter, almond extract, and finally almond milk.
  2. Blend Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until completely smooth and creamy, with no chunks remaining.
  3. Serve: Pour the smoothie evenly into two glasses and enjoy immediately for optimal freshness and flavor.

Notes

  • Use frozen fruits to ensure the smoothie is chilled without watering it down.
  • Adjust almond milk quantity to reach your preferred smoothie consistency.
  • For a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and use a plant-based protein powder.
  • Add a handful of spinach or kale for extra greens without altering the cherry-almond flavor much.
