Coconut Raspberry Smoothie with Rice Milk

Taste

Fruity and tart raspberry softened by pear and rice milk, with a light coconut aroma.

About this smoothie

Rice milk is one of the mildest plant drinks. It is naturally sweet, thin and free from dairy, soy and nuts, which makes it useful for people who avoid these. Raspberries bring aroma, fibre and acidity, and a ripe pear supplies body and sweetness, so no sugar is needed.

Chia seeds make the smoothie a little thicker, and coconut oil gives a round, slightly tropical note. It fits breakfast or a sweet break in the afternoon.

Bartender tips

  • Coconut oil sets in cold liquid and can leave small flakes. Melt it gently and pour it in while the blender is running, or use room temperature ingredients.
  • Frozen raspberries are available all year and make the smoothie thicker.

Variations

With oat drink
Replace the rice milk with an oat drink for a creamier body.
