Method
 

  1. Use a powerful blender capable of handling frozen fruit.
  2. Place all ingredients into the blender in the order listed. Blend on high speed until the mixture is thick and smooth. Start with 2 Tablespoons of cocoa powder, blend, and then add the remaining 1 Tablespoon if you want a stronger chocolate flavor.

  4. If using, drizzle the inside of your serving glass with 1 teaspoon of chocolate syrup, then pour in the smoothie and serve immediately.

Notes

You can adjust this recipe based on your preferences. Omit the sweetener if you prefer a less sweet smoothie. Increase the peanut butter amount for a stronger peanut butter flavor. Add more milk if you want a thinner consistency. For added nutrition, blend in 1 cup of your preferred greens.
