This is a very sweet and delicious treat to have. I love making Heidi Ohlunder’s basic raw Vanilla Iced Cream to eat, and it tastes great in this shake! But you could use any raw Vanilla Iced Cream recipe available.

This sounds great! Is the stevia chocolate flavor raw?

Stevia flavors are not considered raw, but all natural and good for you. A very good substitue for other types of sweetener’s and flavors. You could easily leave it out if necessary. The shake is pretty flavorful and sweet without it.
