Comments
All ingredients are stocked year-round at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, ALDI, and Kroger; fresh cherries are seasonal (June–August in North Carolina) but frozen work just as well here. The stated 5 minutes is honest—just blend and drink. At roughly $3.50 to $4.00 per serving (depending on whether you use fresh or frozen cherries and which non-dairy milk), this is a quick breakfast or snack that costs less than a coffee shop smoothie. The only caveat is that it's a single-serving drink, so scaling up for a family means running the blender multiple times, and it does not keep well past a few hours.
