Almond Joy Smoothie

This Almond Joy Smoothie tastes just like the candy bar that it’s inspired by. The best part it that it is made with just four simple ingredients.

I have been compensated for this post from Blendtec, but all thoughts and opinions expressed are solely mine.

Friends, not only is this drink amazingly delicious, it’s healthier than the candy bar too. If you love coconut and chocolate, I can’t wait for you to try it.

If you haven’t had the chance to try out one of these babies, it needs to be at the top of your list. Since getting our Blendtec, it has revolutionized our morning breakfast routines and even improved snack time. I’ve also never seen my husband eat as many vegetables as I have now that he’s discovered whole juicing. Even my 11-year-old, Aiden, has found his favorite: Chocolate Almond Spread – simply to die for.

While I can’t wait to share more of these amazing recipes with you, I decided to rock out this Almond Joy Smoothie first, because, it’s become one of my favorites. I was never a big Almond Joy fan, but I still always loved chocolate, coconut, and almond. This classic candy bar in a smoothie is hands down, my favorite way to eat chocolate right now.

So if you’re looking for a new idea for breakfast, an afternoon snack, or even a healthier dessert, try this Almond Joy Smoothie. You’ll love this easy, 4-ingredient drink that will leave all chocolate fans wanting more.
Enjoy! XOXO San

How do you make Almond Joy Smoothie?

Freeze the Greek yogurt. I do this by spooning it into an ice cube tray, place in the freezer for about an hour or until it is completely frozen.

Add all of the ingredients in order into a blender – I use my Blendtec for this.

Set it on the smoothie setting. It takes about 40 seconds with the Blendtec. If you don’t have a Blendtec, blend until it reaches your desired consistency.

If you want a thicker smoothie, add 2 ice-cubes made from almond milk. This makes it more like a shake, whereas it will be pretty thin if you follow the original recipe – just the way I like it.
