Notes
If you have a weaker blender, you can try using a liquid sweetener instead of dates. Adjust the sweetness to taste.Feel free to add more cocoa for a stronger chocolate flavor. You can also add more dates for a sweeter drink. This recipe is easily customizable!Be careful when removing the lid of the blender as there will be steam.
