CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY

Cherries are one of our favorite ingredients, especially when they are in season.
But during the rest of the year, we love blending up frozen cherries. Tart cherries can help muscles recover after working out. They are also full of dietary fiber, vitamin A, potassium, and even a little bit of calcium. The nutrients in cherries can help support muscle, heart, kidney, and nerve cell functions. And get this – cherries contain melatonin. That means sipping this smoothie can help your body if you’re suffering from jetlag. What can’t cherries do?!
