Pear Raspberry Smoothie with Coconut
Tangy, aromatic raspberry with a dark berry note, softened by pear and banana.
Raspberries are among the most aromatic berries and bring a clear, tart flavour and plenty of fibre. A small portion of blackberries adds a darker, wilder note. Ripe pear and half a banana balance the acidity with natural sweetness, and coconut oil makes the smoothie feel rounder.
It is a fresh, fruity smoothie that works well for breakfast or as a snack, and it is easy to make all year with frozen berries.
Yes, all ingredients are plant based (sweeten with agave syrup rather than honey).
Yes, frozen berries work very well; you may need a splash more water.
Raspberries are tart, but pear and banana balance them. Add 1 tsp agave syrup if you prefer it sweeter.
