We’re celebrating warmer weather with a refreshingly cool drink! Your first sip may remind you of summer days by the pool, water balloon fights and running through the sprinklers. One thing is for sure: our Mint Mojito Smoothie is sure to bring out a sunny disposition.

This smoothie is packed full of protein to keep you fuller for longer, earns its sweetness from fresh fruit (thanks dates!), serves up a dose of healthy fats (thanks avocado!) and is punching above its weight in terms of nutritional benefits (thanks spirulina!).

And, once you try it, we have a feeling you might be whipping it up all year long.

What you need:

• 1 ½ cup coconut milk
• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
• ½ an avocado
• 2 tbsp. hemp seeds
• 1/2 tsp. spirulina (or scoop of nutritional green powder)
• 4 tbsp. freshly squeezed lime juice
• 1 frozen banana
• 2 dates, pitted
• 1 handful fresh mint leaves (20-25 leaves)

Enjoy!
