Ingredients:
1 cup of frozen cherries (and/or berries)
1 frozen banana
2 tablespoons of almond butter

A handful of ice cubes

Instructions:
In a high-powered blender, combine the frozen fruit, almond butter, and fresh ginger.
Add in the plant milk and vegan chocolate protein powder. Throw in the ice cubes last.
