Instructions
- Add the milk to a high-speed blender.
- Add the frozen cherries, cream cheese, honey (or maple syrup), pure vanilla extract, and fine sea salt.
- Add the ice cubes to the blender.
- Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35 to 50 seconds until completely smooth.
- Check the consistency. If too thick, blend in 1 to 2 tablespoons additional milk; if too thin, add a few extra ice cubes or frozen cherries.
- Pour the smoothie into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.
Tips
- Use full-fat cream cheese for a richer texture. You can substitute almond milk for a dairy-free option, but the smoothie won't be vegan due to cream cheese.
