Notes
The smoothie is mildly sweet. If you’d like it to be sweeter, add another banana (or berries) and 1 tablespoon of coconut water at a time, while blending, until the smoothie reaches your desired consistency.
If you prefer a thinner smoothie, add 1 tablespoon of coconut water at a time, blend and stop when the smoothie reaches your desired consistency and sweetness.
Choose your favourite toppings. Today I chose pistachios and hemp seeds. For more topping ideas, check out the “How to boost the nutrition of the recipe” section above.
