Ingredients
- 1.25 cups chopped strawberries - 200 grams
- ½ cup coconut milk - lite or with a thin/medium consistency
- 1 banana - medium to large
Instructions
Prep
- Rinse, hull and then chop strawberries. You can also use frozen strawberries if you’d like to make a thicker strawberry smoothie.
- Add the chopped strawberries in a blender.
- Add 1 medium to large banana (roughly chopped).
- Pour lite coconut milk. The coconut milk should have a thin or medium consistency. You can add some sweetener like maple syrup, jaggery, palm sugar, raw sugar or coconut sugar if you prefer. For thicker smoothie add about ¼ to ⅓ cup lite coconut milk.
Cup of Yum
Blend
- Blend until smooth. If the smoothie is a bit too thick, add a splash of coconut milk and blend again.
- Pour in glasses and serve strawberry smoothie straight away. Opt to serve the smoothie as it or top with some strawberry slices or chopped nuts.
Serving Suggestions
- Pour into two glasses and serve the strawberry smoothie straight away. I suggest you garnish the glasses with some sliced strawberries or chopped nuts or dry fruits.
- I recommend to drink the freshly blended smoothie as soon as it is made for the best flavor and taste.
- The coconut milk in the smoothie will get rancid if kept at room temperature for a few hours in a warm temperature. It can also go rancid in the fridge.
Notes
- Opt to add your preferred sweeteners if you like.
- Both frozen strawberries and frozen bananas can be blended to make the smoothie.
- If the smoothie has become too thick, blend it again add a splash of lite coconut milk.
- Vice versa for thicker smoothie, add about ¼ to ⅓ cup of the lite coconut milk.
- For garnish either top with fresh strawberry slices or slivered nuts like almonds or pistachios.
- If you do not have bananas, double or triple the amount of strawberries or add a creamy and pulpy fruit like a ripe mango or avocado.
- Swap coconut milk with almond milk, cashew milk, GMO free soy milk, oats milk or your preferred plant based milk.
- You could also make this smoothie with milk or yogurt but enjoy it once a while and not everyday.
- Feel free to flavor the smoothie with either vanilla or ground cinnamon or ground green cardamom.
- Scale the recipe easily to make for more servings.
