With Valentine’s Day coming up, we’re often bombarded with chocolate-covered everything, and I decided to turn one of our favorite treats into a refreshing and healthy smoothie.

Chocolate Covered Cherry Smoothie Ingredients

Four ingredients and a good blender are all you need to whip up this easy kid-favorite smoothie recipe. 

• Milk- dairy or non-dairy
• Frozen banana
• Frozen pitted cherries
• Semi-sweet chocolate chips

If you don’t know by now, my kids love smoothies. It’s a snack request I can never turn down and they make great recipes for picky eaters. You can blend up a ton of nutritious fruits and vegetables into a creamy drink they will want to sip up for breakfast or an after school snack.

How to Make a Smoothie with Frozen Fruit

I like using frozen fruit for smoothie recipes because it helps everything blend thick and stay colder, longer. Ready to make this yummy treat? Perfect, grab your blender, and let’s get to it. 

1. Blend
   Add all the ingredients to a blender in the order listed. Blend until smooth. 
   *Starting with liquids first and adding ingredients will ensure any smoothie recipe blends even and smooth. 
2. Sip up! 
   Transfer the smoothie to a glass or to-go cup and sip away.

Why not pack this smoothie in a thermos for a healthy Valentine’s Day lunchbox treat your kids will love just as much as candy. They’ll never know they’re drinking something good for them.
