Banana and yoghurt make this glass creamy, raspberries give it colour and tang. Coconut water keeps it lighter than a milk-based smoothie.

5 oz

Light and creamy, with sweet banana, bright raspberry and a hint of coconut.
Coconut water, the clear liquid from young green coconuts, tastes mildly sweet and contains potassium, which is why many people like it after sport. Here it forms a light base for banana and raspberries. The banana adds sweetness and body, raspberries a fresh acidity along with fibre and vitamin C, and a little natural yoghurt makes the texture creamy. A good glass after a workout or for breakfast.
