If you love smoothies but want something that is a little lighter in texture, this chocolate milkshake is your go-to.
This recipe uses the home-made almond milk we shared recently, and combines other wholesome ingredients including cacao, banana and almond butter.
The result is a velvety, chocolate drink that has a natural sweetness and offers a great way to get your antioxidants in.
This chocolate milkshake is not too rich, too sweet or too creamy – it’s just right.
