Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 cup coconut water
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1 cup kale leaves
  • ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 4 dates pitted
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place all the ingredients in a high-speed blender, and blend for 60-120 seconds until you get a smooth and creamy texture.
  2. Taste the smoothie, adding more milk if it is too thick or adding more sweetener if it’s not sweet enough. Pour into a cup or mason jar. Enjoy immediately, or store in the fridge for up to 24 hours.

Notes

  • Storage:
  • Smoothies are best enjoyed fresh but if you have any leftover coconut water smoothie, store it in an airtight container like a mason jar in the fridge for up to 2 days. Shake to redistribute ingredients before drinking.
  • Tips:
  • Strip the kale leaves from the stems to avoid bitterness in the smoothie.
  • Use frozen bananas for a richer, creamier, and chilled smoothie.
