This mint chocolate smoothie is about to be your favorite chocolatey treat. It tastes like a mint chocolate chip milkshake only it’s loaded with wholesome ingredients like frozen banana and oat milk.
Smoothies are easy enough. I love just throwing everything in a blender, distracting myself for a few minutes and then DONE. Smoothie time.
It’s fun to mix up the fun smoothie flavors. Sure sure, I love when smoothies are fruity and refreshing like this green goddess smoothie, or this peanut butter and strawberry one.
And, if you want a fun chocolate drink, try this Chocolate Flax Milk, 10-Min Creamy Chocolate Coconut Shake, or this Chocolate Oat Milk!
Want to Love Mint Even More?
Here are some stats. If you want an ingredient that’s calming and soothing, mint is the herb for you! You can use it to aid an upset stomach or indigestion as it’ll help reset any tummy troubles.
Is Cacao Nutritious?
You can use cocoa powder or cacao powder in this smoothie. Plus we’re adding some cacao nibs to the top which makes for a fun chocolatey crunch.
Cacao has 40 times the amount of antioxidants than blueberries and is a really awesome plant-based source of iron and magnesium. It’s loaded with calcium and is said to be a natural mood elevator. In my own anecdotal experience, one sip of this minty cacao smoothie and I am happy as a clam.
