Happy Holiday Season!!
OK, so I know it’s not Christmas time just yet, BUT with Thanksgiving this week I have the holiday in my world the holiday season has officially begun!
So, this recipe totally started out as a Coco Almond Smoothie, THEN I realized I had some peppermint extract on hand I a decided to make a little “treble” in the kitchen 🙂 One of my FAVORITE flavor combos of the holiday season is peppermint and chocolate, so I couldn’t resist adding trying this smoothie idea out.
Yep!
I added some of that minty sweet extract right to my smoothie and was VERY happy with the end result!
