Gracious Living Peppermint Patty Smoothie
Ingredients:
- 1 scoop Warrior Blend chocolate protein
- 1 teaspoon Sunwarrior Supergreens
- 1 avocado
- 1 cup spinach or kale
- 3 drops pure, food-grade peppermint oil (if it is not food grade, you CANNOT eat it or you will get sick. I use DoTerra for this recipe.)
- 1/2 teaspoon matcha green powder
- 1 teaspoon pure liquid vanilla
- Pinch sea salt
- 2 to 3 cups unsweetened coconut milk
- Handful ice
- Topping: raw cacao nibs
Directions:
- Place all items in the blender except the cacao nibs.
- Blend till super creamy.
- Top with crunchy raw cacao nibs.
- This smoothie does contain some caffeine from the green tea powder, so it’s best not consumed close to bedtime.
- Extra Energizing Superfood Addition:
- 1 teaspoon maca powder for energy, adrenal nourishment, and hormone balancing.
- Chocolatey Tip:
- For extra chocolate flavor, add 1 to 2 teaspoons of raw cacao powder.
Superfood Swirl:
Add original green smoothie mixture to glass about half or 3/4 full. Blend the rest of the remaining mixture with 1 to 2 teaspoons of raw cacao powder so it turns brown and chocolatey. Top up the rest of the smoothie. Add cacao nibs on top.
