Instructions:
- Measure out all the ingredients before you start blending. This will make the process smoother and ensure accurate quantities.

- Finally, add the 1 tsp of dry cocoa powder.
3. Blend:

- Blend on high speed until all ingredients are fully combined and the mixture is smooth. This should take about 30-60 seconds depending on your blender.
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a little more soy milk and blend again until you achieve your desired consistency.
- If you prefer a thicker smoothie, you can add a few ice cubes and blend again.
- Pour the smoothie into a glass or cup.
- Optionally, you can garnish with a sprinkle of extra cocoa powder or a few chia seeds on top for added texture and visual appeal.

Tips:
- Ensure the avocado is ripe to achieve a smoother texture.
- For extra sweetness, consider adding a banana or a tablespoon of honey.
- Blend the dry ingredients first before adding the liquid to ensure even mixing and a smoother consistency.
- If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more soy milk or water to reach your desired consistency.
- For a thicker, shake-like texture, add a handful of ice cubes before blending.
