This smoothie is inspired by my boredom with the classic strawberry banana I usually make each morning. I opened my freezer this morning and said, "what frozen organic matter do I have that can be blended together besides strawberries and bananas". I avoided the ancient green peas and frozen scotch bonnet peppers, and stumbled upon haphazard smoothie heaven. I recognize that the average smoothie purveyor doesn't have these three frozen ingredients lying around, but it's probably worth it now. The combination of coconut and peach makes for a smooth and creamy base with a kick of ginger and the tang of apple juice.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 of a 6 oz package of frozen shredded coconut
- 1 good handful of frozen peach slices, about 12
- Less then 1 tablespoon of frozen ginger root
- Almond milk
- Apple juice
Directions:
- Place all frozen ingredients in blender
- Cover up to 2/3 of ingredients with almond milk
- Fill up the remaining 1/3 with apple juice to just cover the frozen stuff
- Blend for a long time to ensure adequate coconut pulverization
