Mango Raspberry Coconut Smoothie

on 10 November 2015 in General News

With summer just around the corner, it's the perfect time to bust out the blender and whip up a delicious, refreshing smoothie!

Perfect for when you need a meal on the go or a healthy snack to satisfy your sweet tooth; smoothies are a great option as they're fast, easy and you can pack in a heap of nutrient-dense ingredients.

Nothing says summer in Queensland better than that sweet, tangy mango flavour, and creamy coconut is the perfect companion. Add in the raspberries to balance the sweetness of the mango and this smoothie looks like a coastal sunrise.

Mango Raspberry Coconut Smoothie
Serves 2
Vegan & gluten free
322 calories | 16g protein | 9g fat | 43g carbs | 9g fibre

Ingredients
Mango mix:
1 cup frozen mango chunks
1/2 frozen banana
1/2 cup Coco Quench (Pure Harvest)
3 tbsp hemp seeds

Raspberry mix:
1 cup frozen raspberries
1/2 frozen banana
1/2 cup Coco Quench (Pure Harvest)
1 scoop Sunwarrior Protein (Vanilla or Chocolate)

To serve:
Shredded coconut
Hemp seeds
Fresh raspberries

Method

  1. Add the mango, hemp seeds and most of the Coco Quench to a high-powered blender. You want to make sure its nice and thick, so don't add all the Coco Quench at once. Blend for 30 seconds until smooth, adding more Coco Quench as necessary to get it to a thick-shake consistency (so you can pour the next layer cleanly on top).
  2. Pour the mango mix into two jars or glasses, and pop into the freezer whilst you prepare the raspberry mix.
  3. Add the raspberries, Sunwarrior Protein and most of the Coco Quench to the blender (don't worry about rinsing it). Blend for 30 seconds, adding Coco Quench as needed to get a thick consistency.
  4. Slowly pour the raspberry mix over top of the mango mix. Serve with fresh raspberry, hemp seeds and shredded coconut flakes on top.
