1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk of your choice)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker consistency)

Toppings (optional): cacao nibs, sliced banana, or chia seeds

Instructions
 

Prepare Ingredients: Ensure your banana is properly frozen beforehand. This will create a creamy, velvety texture for your smoothie.

    BLEND: In a blender, add the frozen banana, tahini, cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt.

        TASTE TEST: Once blended, pause to taste the smoothie. If you desire more sweetness, feel free to add an additional drizzle of maple syrup and blend again briefly.

          SERVE: Pour the silky smoothie into a tall glass. Enhance its appeal by sprinkling your choice of toppings such as cacao nibs for crunch, sliced banana for freshness, or chia seeds for a nutrient boost.
