Tips & Notes:

• Chocolate milk is actually a highly nutritious post exercise beverage as it contains protein, carbs, vitamins and minerals - like potassium, magnesium and calcium - required by the body after a workout

• Swap the carrot for banana if you wish. Adding carrot helps to increase your veggie intake for the day! Carrot has a natural sweetness which complements the cacao nicely

• Add ice for a refreshing twist!
