This Chocolate Energy Smoothie makes two servings full mason jars approximately 300 calories each. I drank both jars in one sitting but I don’t count calories. I tracked it on myfitnesspal because I know people like to know. Happy smoothie tasting let me know what you think. The Coconut milk says 1 cup but that’s the nutrition value for 2 cups (i.e.: 45 cal / cup).
