Instructions

Add the milk to a high-speed blender.
Add the frozen pitted cherries, plain yogurt, rolled oats, fine sea salt, and vanilla extract.
Add the ice cubes.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds until completely smooth.
Check the consistency and add 1–2 tablespoons of additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes or frozen cherries if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture; quick oats can make the smoothie too mushy. To make it vegan, substitute the milk and yogurt with plant-based alternatives.
