Author Notes

Blending Planet Oat Extra Creamy Oatmilk with cold brew, cocoa powder, frozen bananas, slightly sweet dates, and chia seeds (for the perfect smoothie texture, and health benefits to boot) make this smoothie the perfect get-up-and-go beverage. I've also added the tiniest pinch of salt to amplify all of these powerhouse flavors. —Nea Arentzen
