This was devised after I had leftover beetroot puree from the Red Velvet pancakes from Valentine’s Day that I’d frozen. It’s my wedding anniversary at the end of August, so I figured this would be a suitable start to the day! It’s a really yummy twist on the classic chocolate shake, with extra nutrients from the beetroot and banana.
