Smoothie Ingredients
- 1 cup cashew milk
- 2 frozen bananas
- 1/2 cup strawberries
- 1/4 cup frozen raspberries
- 2 scoops Ka’Chava Vanilla Protein Powder
- 1 tbsp almond butter
- 1 tsp vanilla paste or vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Garnish
- 3 large dollops coconut yogurt
- Crushed freeze-dried strawberries (for sprinkling)
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Break the frozen bananas into chunks or cut them with a knife to ensure they blend smoothly in your blender without straining the blades.
- Blend Smoothie: Add all the smoothie ingredients into a high-powered blender. Start blending on low speed for 30 seconds to combine the ingredients, then gradually increase to medium-high speed and blend for another 2 minutes until the mixture is creamy and smooth.
- Decorate Glass: Add three large dollops of coconut yogurt to the bottom and sides of your serving glass. Use a spoon to gently swirl the yogurt upwards, creating a marbled effect.
- Sprinkle Strawberries: Sprinkle crushed freeze-dried strawberries on the sides of the glass to enhance the marbled look and add a burst of fruity flavor.
- Serve: Pour the blended smoothie into the prepared glass over the coconut yogurt swirls and enjoy this nutritious and visually stunning beverage immediately.
Notes
- Use a high-powered blender for the smoothest texture.
- Frozen bananas make the smoothie creamy and chilled without needing ice.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of protein powder or almond butter.
- For a nut-free version, substitute almond butter with sunflower seed butter.
- Coconut yogurt adds a tangy richness and makes the presentation more appealing.
