Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cup frozen dark sweet cherries pitted
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or any plant-based milk of choice
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt use coconut yogurt for vegan version
- 1 tbsp creamy almond butter for healthy fats and texture
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract enhances the cherry sweetness

Notes
Storage: Best enjoyed immediately for texture, but can be stored in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 12 hours (shake well before drinking). Substitution: Use frozen banana slices instead of yogurt for a dairy-free, naturally sweeter version. Make-ahead: Portion out the dry/frozen ingredients into freezer bags for quick morning blending.
