Avocado and Cacao Smoothie

May 7, 2026

This smoothie is an exceptional nutritional tool, often called an "energy mousse." The avocado base provides monounsaturated fats (oleic acid) that support cardiovascular health and deliver an unmatched silky texture. When combined with pure cacao, it offers a high flavonoid content. Using Stevia 1:8 removes the glycemic load of sugar, while Cream of Tartar acts as an emulsion stabilizer so the smoothie does not separate.

Estimated time: 5 minutes.
Difficulty: ⭐ (Very easy).

Detailed Description (Procedure)

Avocado Preparation: Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. It is important that it be ripe to achieve maximum creaminess.
Adding the Ingredients: Place the avocado flesh, pure cacao, and cold plant-based drink into the blender jug.
Technical Incorporation: Add the Stevia 1:8, vanilla extract, the pinch of Bonsalt 0% Sodium and Cream of Tartar. The Castelló Cream of Tartar is the secret here: it helps keep the avocado fat structure suspended in the liquid, preventing the smoothie from oxidizing or "splitting" if it is not consumed immediately.
High-Power Blending: Blend at maximum speed for 1-2 minutes until you get a shiny, smooth cream with no cacao lumps.
Serving: Serve in tall glasses. You can garnish with some cacao nibs or a strawberry for contrast.

Chef's Secrets

Enhancing the Chocolate: The pinch of Bonsalt 0% is essential. The potassium enhances the deep notes of the cacao, making the chocolate flavor much more intense without needing to add sugar.
Mousse Effect: Thanks to Cream of Tartar, if you leave this smoothie in the fridge for 30 minutes, it will develop a delicious mousse-like consistency.
