Nourishing Pina Colada Cream Smoothie

13 October 2015

I absolutely love coconut (hence my Coconut Milk Ice-Cream), and so I just had to create this delicious smoothie for you. This is honestly to die for, and is packed with all the goodness of a well- balanced meal. The medium chain fatty acids in coconut, paired with potassium rich banana, vegan protein and anti-inflammatory spices are all absolutely essential for vitality and wellbeing, and that is why this smoothie truly is a nutrition wonder!
