About this recipe
This sour cherry cocoa smoothie is a milk-and-yogurt drink inspired by the classic pairing of sour cherries and chocolate. Sour cherries add tartness and a pronounced fruit aroma, cocoa contributes dessert-like bitterness, and banana softens the flavor and improves the texture. Milk and yogurt form a smooth, full-bodied base while keeping the smoothie pourable. It is a fruit smoothie with a distinctly chocolate-forward character.
Ingredients
180 g sour cherries
1 banana
250 ml milk
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
2 tablespoons yogurt
Steps
Rinse and pit the sour cherries; check fruit sold as pitted as well. Peel and cut up the banana. Use frozen sour cherries only in a blender suitable for frozen fruit.
Mix the cocoa with a little of the measured milk, working out any visible lumps. Put the fruit in a blender and add the yogurt, cocoa mixture and remaining milk.
Blend until the color is even and the fruit is broken down. Stop the blender and check for dry cocoa on the sides; scrape it into the mixture and blend briefly again.
Taste the smoothie and check its texture: it should be pourable, with a distinct sour cherry and cocoa flavor and no large pieces of fruit. Pour into two glasses. Using chilled milk allows you to serve it cold immediately.
