Equipment

  • blender

Ingredients

  • 1 cup vanilla coconut milk, unsweetened any milk will work here
  • 1/2 avacado
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1/4 tsp pure peppermint extract
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chopped frozen spinach optional
  • 1 cup ice
  • 1-2 Tbsp honey
  • pinch kosher salt
  • chocolate chips and mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  • In a blender, combine all ingredients (aside from chocolate chips and mint for garnish) and blend on medium speed for about 1-2 minutes, making sure to get rid of all green specs from the spinach. This often takes 2 full minutes.
  • Top with fresh mint leaves and chocolate chips, if desired.

Notes

I find that cooked chopped frozen spinach works better in smoothies vs. fresh, as it tends to blend into the base more consistently.
