This recipe makes two drinks. You can easily double or half the recipe to adjust the number of servings. If you find your smoothie is too thick, adding a little bit more milk or coffee will help thin it out to a drinkable consistency.

What's the Difference Between Cocoa and Cacao Powder?

Cocoa powder and cacao powder are very similar. Cocoa powder is processed at a much higher temperature, resulting in a powder that is less bitter and slightly darker. Cacao powder is processed at a lower temperature and then milled into a powder that has a more bitter taste.
