Ingredients

  • 2 cups nut milk unsweetened almond or cashew milk
  • 1 beetroot small size, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup raspberries I recommend using frozen
  • ½ avocado ripe, skin removed
  • 2 tbsp cacao powder plus more to taste (1 tbsp at a time)
  • 6 dates pitted

Optional - To Serve:

  • cacao powder for dusting
  • fresh raspberries
  • chocolate granola

Instructions

  • Place nut milk first to the high-powered blender.  Add remaining ingredients and blend on high until completely smooth.
  • Taste and adjust the flavor if needed: 1/2 avocado for more creaminess, an extra date for more sweetness, or 1 tbsp cacao powder for a richer chocolate flavor.
  • Pour into two glasses, add desired toppings (optional) and serve.

Notes

* use cooked beets if you do not own a high-powered blender.
** use soft dates in this recipe. If your dates are hard, soak in warm water for 5 minutes before adding to the blender.
