about this Salted Caramel Mocha Smoothie
So can I let you in on a little secret? There is actually no caramel sauce in this smoothie. Swear!
So how’d I do it? Dates! They are sweet and have an essence of caramel! Just like in my No-Bake Salted Caramel Chocolate Oat Bars.
CocoaVia is a new find that I have fallen in love with. CocoaVia® is a daily cocoa extract supplement that delivers the highest concentration of cocoa flavanols, which are scientifically proven to promote a healthy heart by supporting healthy blood flow†. Traditional cocoa processing, which includes drying, fermenting and roasting of beans, destroys many of the flavanols naturally present in the cocoa bean. CocoaVia®supplement isolates the “good stuff” in chocolate in a convenient, versatile form, without all the calories and fat.

Yes! You can add all the ingredients, except dates, to a storage container, and store in the freezer until ready to blend. Then add all the contents to a blender.
how to make freezer smoothie packs
Like I mentioned above, you can make multiple freezer smoothie packs ahead of time and store in the freezer. Not only is this great for this cafe mocha smoothie but also other smoothie recipes! Just add the ingredients such as fruit, even greens, to a container or freezer bag then store in the freezer. That will make assembling the smoothie much quicker!
