Beet Smoothie Recipe
Description
The recipe requires placing all ingredients into a high-powered blender to achieve a uniform smooth consistency within 30 seconds. Diced beets provide a fresh, earthy element, while frozen blueberries add natural sweetness and coldness. Coconut milk contributes a creamy texture and mild flavor, and water adjusts the thickness for easy drinking.
This smoothie can be consumed immediately as a nutrient-rich beverage or snack. The use of raw beets maintains their bright flavor and nutritional properties.
For blenders with less power, grating beets or using cooked beets can help ensure smooth blending.
Ingredients
- 1 medium beet diced (see notes)
- 1 cup blueberries frozen
- ½ cup coconut milk shake the can well before you open it to mix the cream with the milk, light
- ½ cup water cold
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients in a high-powered blender and blend on high for 30 seconds.
- Drink up your raw beet smoothie!
Notes
- Using a high-powered blender produces the best smoothie texture.
- If your blender is less powerful, grate the beets or use cooked beets for smoother results.
