Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup frozen raspberries
  • ½ cup coconut milk or coconut water
  • ½ banana (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon shredded coconut
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • a handful of ice cubes
  • honey or maple syrup (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
    1. Wash the raspberries, if using fresh ones; otherwise, measure out the frozen ones.
    2. Measure the coconut milk or water, with your preference for creaminess in mind.
  • Step 2: Blend the Mixture
    1. Start with the liquid base in the blender, beginning with coconut milk or water, to help blending.
    2. Add the mixture of raspberries, banana (if using), shredded coconut, chia seeds, and Greek yogurt.
  • Step 3: adjust consistency and flavors
    Blend on high speed until silky smooth. To get a thicker smoothie, you can add some ice or frozen fruit, whereas if it's too watery for your taste, then a bit more coconut milk or water will get you where you need to go.
    Take a sip to check the flavor. Maybe a tad of honey or maple syrup to balance that tart.
  • Step 4: Enjoy and serve
    Pour into a glass and sprinkle with shredded coconut or throw a few fresh raspberries on top for presentation and serve.
