Servings: 2 One Serving: 12 oz
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 5 Tbsp Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup granulated allulose sweetener (like RxSugar) or granulated erythritol-based sweetener (like Swerve)
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- sea salt or salt
- 1½ cup ice cubes
Some emerging research suggests that erythritol might increase the risk of blood clots, but more studies are needed to confirm this potential link. Whether you decide to use erythritol or not, remember that all sweeteners should be consumed in moderation, and your keto diet should primarily focus on nutritious whole foods.

Instructions
- In a blender, combine all the ingredients, then pulse a few times to break down the ice cubes. Turn the blender to high and blend until thick and smooth, stopping and scraping down the sides and adding 1 tablespoon of cold water at a time (up to 3 total) if the shake is too thick.
- Divide between 2 glasses and serve with straws and spoons.

Tips
- Other pure-flavoring extracts, such as peppermint or orange, or spices like cinnamon and/or chili powder, can be added to create a different shake flavor-profile.
- After blending, feel free to add mix-ins, such as chopped nuts, cacao nibs, berries, or toasted coconut. Recalculate your macros to accommodate the additions and serve with a spoon.
- Use almond milk or half-and-half in place of the coconut milk, if desired, recalculating macros accordingly.
