This Chocolate Strawberry Smoothie is the BEST Strawberry Smoothie! A creamy strawberry smoothie made with fresh strawberries, yogurt and milk is taken to a new level when swirled with melted chocolate. Be prepared to be wowed!
While strawberry smoothies are delicious, a creamy strawberry smoothie swirled with chocolate is irresistible!
Chocolate Strawberry Smoothie
Chocolate and strawberries are known to be a perfect match.
Strawberries in smoothies is also a classic combination.
Combining these two ingredients into one, creates a Strawberry Smoothie that is swoon worthy.
This Strawberry Smoothie is a rich and creamy drink that is swimming with protein and calcium from the milk and yogurt and antioxidants from the dark chocolate and strawberries. Which in my book, means this Strawberry Smoothie is HEALTHY and DELICIOUS.
How to make a Chocolate Strawberry Smoothie
Step One: Melt Chocolate
- Place chocolate chunks/chips into glass bowl and microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring between intervals, until all chocolate is melted.
- Drizzle some of that melted chocolate along the sides of your serving glass.
Step Two: Prepare Strawberry Smoothie
- Blend together chopped strawberries milk, Greek yogurt and vanilla extract.
Step Three: Serve Strawberry Smoothie
- Evenly divide smoothie mixture between 4 glasses.
A few notes on this Strawberry Smoothie:
- You can use any chocolate you would like to in this smoothie. Even just chocolate syrup drizzled on the sides of the serving glasses is a enough of a special touch–and SUPER easy!
- I use my homemade Greek yogurt in this smoothie, but any yogurt will work. Of course you can use non-dairy yogurt and milk to keep this strawberry smoothie dairy free. (Just be sure your chocolate is dairy-free as well.)
- I find that the strawberries and chocolate are enough to sweeten this strawberry smoothie, but if you like things really sweet, you can add in a few tablespoons of maple syrup to taste.
- If you have leftover melted chocolate, be sure to dip in some strawberries in the chocolate for an extra treat, or make my Easy Strawberry Yogurt Bites.

LOL…I have husband stories too. Although…he would probably say the same about me! Neither one of us is much of a romantic, so forgotten holidays are par for the course here. Your smoothie looks absolutely wonderful. I could go for that for breakfast ANY day of the week!

Well, as you can tell we have gotten used to forgotten holidays around here!
