Raw cacao chocolate superfood smoothie, dairy-free

Giada Correale / 13 Sept 2016

This recipe makes for the best indulging and intense chocolate smoothie, only featuring all-natural ingredients, good for your body and health! Thick, chocolate-y, dark but sweet! The dates naturally sweeten the mixture, but if you like things on the sweet side I’d suggest to add a splash of agave syrup. The addition of almonds – a good dose of healthy fats, and of a sachet of VITL Greens, makes it a superfood bomb, good for hair, skin and nail health especially!
