Can you substitute cocoa powder or hot chocolate mix for the chocolate milk?

Chocolate milk is the simplest (and best tasting) way to make this smoothie. Chocolate milk adds the purest and most authentic chocolate taste.

However, if you only have regular milk on hand, the second best option is to use hot chocolate powder mix. Add 4 tablespoons of hot chocolate powder to a cup of milk as a substitute.

Cocoa powder is not recommended for this smoothie. It is not as sweet as hot chocolate mix and can add a more bitter taste.

Expert Tips:

To make this smoothie vegan: Use chocolate almond milk instead of cow’s milk for a vegan and dairy free smoothie.
If you are using fresh mango: Add slightly less chocolate milk before blending. Fresh mango has more juice and may lead to a more liquidy smoothie. Additionally, add in some ice cubes to get the right smoothie consistency.
