Three kinds of greens are hidden in this smoothie, yet it looks and tastes mainly of blackberries. Coconut milk makes it creamy and rounds off the tartness.

Blackberry Spinach Smoothie with Coconut Milk
Creamy and fruity, with tart blackberry, a soft coconut roundness and a faint peppery green note.
Mixing several leafy greens is a simple way to add variety to a smoothie. Baby spinach and lamb's lettuce are mild, while a small amount of rocket brings a faint peppery note. Together they contribute folate and vitamin K. Blackberries dominate the flavour and colour and add fibre from their seeds.
Coconut milk turns the whole drink creamy and gives it a gentle tropical aroma. The smoothie is dairy free and fairly filling, suitable for breakfast or as a snack when you want something richer than a fruit juice.
Only slightly. The blackberries and coconut dominate, with a faint peppery note from the rocket.
Yes, all ingredients are plant based.
Yes. 25 g of baby spinach instead of the three greens makes it even milder.
