Cherry Oat Sunrise

Tart cherry gives this oat blend a more grown-up sour edge than most berry smoothies. Banana supplies sweetness and texture, while oat milk softens the cherry without hiding it entirely. Blend and serve fresh; acidic juice can change plant milk’s appearance if the glass sits. You’re looking for a creamy cherry breakfast with some tang left in it, not a sweet shake with the cherry reduced to color.

Ingredients

• 6 oz Unsweetened oat milk
• 2 oz Tart cherry juice
• 1 fruit Banana
• 1 tbsp Rolled oats (optional)

Make it

1. Add the milk and all fruit to a blender.
2. Add any spices or optional oats. Blend until smooth.
3. Pour into a glass. Add a splash more milk if you prefer it thinner.

Benefits

Banana · a potassium contribution

Banana brings some potassium to the mix—a nutrient involved in normal muscle and nerve function, alongside a mellow, creamy base from oat milk.

Cherry · texture as well as taste

Blending cherry with oat milk and banana gives you a deep, tangy cherry flavor throughout the drink, with the whole blended ingredients staying in the glass.
