Makes 1 nice tall, light, fresh, creamy, dreamy, subtly sweet, perfectly spiced, deliciously magical super smoothie
Ingredients –
- 2 Tablespoons of coconut or Greek style Yogurt
- 3/4 cup vanilla almond milk milk
- 1/2 cup mixed berries (I used a mix of frozen blueberries, strawberries, raspberries & blackberries frozen – any kind, fresh or frozen would work)
- 2 Tablespoons of cashews, (soak in boiling water for 5-10 mins before blending if you don’t have a high powered blender)
- 1 teaspoon of maca
- 1 teaspoon of chia seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon of ground turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger
- A pinch of pink salt
- 1 pinch of ground black pepper – this is important as the chemical compound in the black pepper is what helps and enables the body to absorb all of those important nutrients in the turmeric! You can’t taste the pepper, promise.
- 1-2 scoops of Vital proteins unflavored collagen peptides optional for an extra boost of protein and gut healing goodness
- 1/4-1/2 cup of ice – more or less to desired consistency
Optional for serving –
- Coconut flakes
- Chia seeds
- Whatever your pretty little heart desires!
Method –
1 – Place all smoothie ingredients into your and process until smooth, creamy and well combined.
2 – Pour into a chilled glass or mason jar then top with coconut flakes, chia seeds, dee pollen & edible flowers if desired.
Note – You could also add in a scoop of protein powder (vanilla or unflavoured would work best in this recipe ) for an extra boost of protein if you’re into that kinda thing.
