Chocolate is a useful ingredient for making smoothie as it blends in very well with most ingredients. Chocolate has excellent taste and texture that can blend with a wide range of ingreditents. Personally, I like to use chocolate for my smoothies as it allows me to experiment with new favors. This article will give you an easy to follow recipe that teach you how to make a tasty chocolate soy bean smoothie.

The materials for making this smoothie are simple: just a blender and the food ingredients. I want to keep things easy so that we don’t need to spend much time preparing it. The only thing you might have is the smoothie maker but I can buying one is a good investment.

Get a good smoothie maker or blender. When you are buying a smoothie maker, go for those with bigger mouths so that you can throw more ingredients into the mix. They are also easier to clean, compared to blender with small mouths. I recommend brands like Kenwood or Back-to-basics as they provide a wide range that caters to every price range and functionality.

Add in two scopes of vanilla ice cream. If you want to increase the richness of the smoothie, you can buy premium brands such as Ben & Jerrys and Haggen Daz. I used vanilla here rather than other ice cream favors as it is consider to have a more ‘neutral’ taste and hence will not dilute the favor of other ingredients. If you used other favors like coffee or macedemia nut, they will tend overpower the main ingredients and dilute the taste.

Add in 3/4 cup of chocolate soy milk. This is the main ingredient for the drink so be sure to buy one that has a fuller taste. If you dislike the soy milk taste, rest assured that it will not be noticeable as the vanilla ice cream tend to cover over it. The resulting taste will be mainly from the chocolate. I use soy milk to increase the nutritional value of the drink as soy beans are found to contain important vitamins for our body.

Add in 2 frozen bananas. I always have the habit of freezing the banana so that they are nice and icy when making the smoothies. This is to give the extra icy texture to the drink. Simply slice the bananas and toss them into the mixture.

Once all the ingredients are in, just switch on the smoothie maker. Allow the smoothie maker to blend until you see a nice, silky smooth texture. Once it is done, the drink is ready for consumption. Enjoy!
