Description

The secret ingredient in this creamy coconut water strawberry smoothie is blended cashews which give the flavor and texture of dairy with no dairy at all. High-speed blenders will produce the creamiest result. Lemon juice adds tanginess and you can use some grated zest for an extra zing.

  • 1/3 Cup pitted dates or 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 Cup (1/2 banana) fresh or frozen banana, chopped
  • 3 1/2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 Tsp. vanilla extract
  1. Place all ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Usually about 30 - 60 seconds. Tweak the flavors to taste.
