Ingredients

1 cup plant-based milk
½ packet silken tofu approximately 8 oz.
2 cups frozen cherries about 12 oz.
½ frozen banana ripe
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Optional Prep:

To infuse the silken tofu with extra vanilla flavor, place in a container and mix in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.

Directions:

To a blender, add the dairy-free milk, silken tofu, cherries, banana, and vanilla (if you did not infuse it ahead of time). Blend for one minute or until smooth and creamy.
Pour the finished smoothie into four 8 oz. or two 16 oz. glasses. Garnish with fresh cherries on a fancy toothpick, if desired.

Notes

Cherry Picking: Go for sweet cherries to keep things mellow, or dare to be bold with sour cherries—just toss in a big, frozen banana to balance that tartness. It’s your smoothie rulebook; write it your way!
Sweeten the Deal: Not hitting the sweet spot? Swap in some sweetened dairy-free milk or jazz it up with a splash of your favorite sweetener. A couple of soaked, pitted dates can work wonders, too. Blend and taste, then tweak until it’s just right.
Storing Your Smoothie: If you can’t sip it all at once, no worries! Keep your leftover smoothie in the fridge, tightly sealed, for up to a day. Give it a good shake or a quick re-blend when you’re ready to enjoy it again. For longer storage, pour it into an ice cube tray and freeze. Pop out a few cubes and re-blend for a frosty treat anytime!
