Fruit and cocoa milkshake

Beverages - Fruit and cocoa milkshake by Giorgiana J. - Recipia

Fruit and cocoa milkshake starts with ripe banana and blends smooth in five minutes. Orange, berries, strawberry yogurt, almond milk and cocoa make it creamy, but still easy to drink. I choose a banana with spotted skin, not one that’s still green. Preparation: 5 minutes. Cooking: 0 minutes. Total time: 5 minutes. Servings: 2. Approximately 160 kcal and 4 g protein per serving.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium banana (120 g)
  • 1 medium orange (150 g)
  • 1 tablespoon frozen berries
  • 1 strawberry yogurt (125 g)
  • 150 ml almond milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon cocoa

Preparation

1. Peel the banana and orange, then cut them into pieces. Allow about 3 minutes. 2. Put the fruit in a blender with the frozen berries, strawberry yogurt, almond milk and cocoa. Blend for about 2 minutes, until smooth.

Notes

Drink it right away, because if it sits, the fruit settles and the texture thins. For a dairy-free version, replace the yogurt with 125 g plant-based strawberry yogurt and the almond milk with 150 ml soy milk; regular yogurt contains dairy, and almond milk contains almonds. A ripe banana blends more easily than one that’s still green. A blender makes the mixture smoother than a hand masher. The texture is like a thicker drinkable yogurt. Serve it with a slice of toast.

Frequently asked questions

Why are there still little pieces of fruit in the shake?

Blend for another 20 seconds, until the visible pieces disappear.

Can I use fresh berries?

Yes, use the same tablespoon, and for a cold shake, refrigerate the banana and orange for 30 minutes beforehand.

What should I do if it comes out too thick?

Add 15 ml of almond milk at a time and blend for a few seconds after each addition.

Can I replace the banana with mango?

Yes, use 120 g peeled mango; the purée will have a similar consistency.

Can I use plain yogurt instead of strawberry yogurt?

Yes, use 125 g plain yogurt and add 1 teaspoon of honey to sweeten it.
