Place all the ingredients in blender in order listed and blend until smooth. This drink is rich! Pour over ice cubes or blend in some ice cubes if you want to dilute it somewhat and add frostiness. Serve immediately.
Tips
To increase prebiotic fiber and hardiness we like to add oats. In this case we put 2 tablespoons of old fashioned rolled oats in the blender carafe with the almond milk and allow them to soak for 10 minutes. Then proceed with recipe as directed.
Cocoa, by the way, is a rich source of antioxidants and polyphenols, which are helpful in gut, brain and cardiovascular health. Potassium is a key mineral for digestive health, and bananas, a low FODMAP fruit we eat most everyday are a great source.
