Strawberry Coconut Smoothie with Passion Fruit
Light and tangy, with sweet strawberry, perfumed passion fruit, cool mint and a hint of coconut.
This smoothie is light because it uses water as the base, yet it is full of flavour thanks to passion fruit, whose perfumed pulp has a strong sweet and sour taste. Strawberries add sweetness and vitamin C, and a small amount of baby spinach disappears completely behind the red fruit. Mint freshens the finish. The coconut oil adds a subtle coconut note; as it is mostly saturated fat, one teaspoon is enough. A refreshing glass for warm mornings.
It adds a light coconut aroma and a rounder mouthfeel. It is mostly saturated fat, so a teaspoon is enough, and you can leave it out.
