Instructions

Add the milk to a high-speed blender first.
Add the frozen blueberries, unsweetened cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, 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 consistency. Blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes or frozen blueberries if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

For a creamier texture, substitute milk with almond or oat milk. You can prepare the smoothie base ahead and add ice cubes just before blending.
