Smoothies are such an easy way to have a healthy, delicious, and fancy treat. In fact, if you were to walk into a smoothie shop or a café and ask for this exact smoothie, you would probably pay a pretty penny. That is because there is so much goodness packed into this drink! But with this recipe in hand, you will never have to buy an overpriced smoothie again, you can make it yourself for a lot less but still get the same, amazing tasting drink.

To make this smoothie all you need is a powerful blender and some fruit. Feel free to buy fresh cherries, remove the pits and then freeze them. If cherries aren’t in season where you live, simply buy a bag of frozen cherries from your grocery store. Frozen cherries typically have the pits already removed, saving you a little time in your drink prep!

We like to use coconut milk in this recipe as it gives the cherry smoothie a nice, sweet and tropical taste. However, feel free to use whatever kind of milk you’d like! They will all work great. Vanilla protein powder also adds a nice flavor but plain protein powder will work too. You can also skip the protein powder if you want a lighter version of the smoothie. It will still taste just as great!
