Skill Level: Easy
- 1 cup fresh raspberries (plus extra for garnish)
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon shredded coconut (plus extra for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup ice cubes
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
- Start by placing the raspberries, coconut milk, vanilla protein powder, shredded coconut, honey, vanilla extract, and ice cubes into a blender.
- Blend on high until smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit more coconut milk until you reach your desired consistency.
- Pour the smoothie into two mason jars.
- Garnish with fresh raspberries, a sprinkle of shredded coconut, and a mint sprig if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the tropical flavors!
- For a thicker smoothie: Add a frozen banana for extra creaminess and a boost of flavor.
- Dairy-free option: Use any plant-based milk like almond milk or oat milk.
- Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Give it a good shake before drinking.
- Protein powder substitution: If you don’t have vanilla protein powder, plain Greek yogurt can be a good alternative for added protein.
This Raspberry Coconut Protein Smoothie pairs beautifully with a light and flaky croissant or some whole grain toast with almond butter. For a drink pairing, consider a cup of green tea or a refreshing glass of sparkling water with a slice of lime.
