Recovery Smoothie
1 16 oz. bottle coconut water*
1/4 fresh pineapple
handful frozen strawberries
handful frozen blueberries
handful or two of fresh baby spinach or kale
1 scoop SunWarrior vanilla protein
If using a conventional blender, chop pineapple into small chunks. Place coconut water and fruit into blender and mix on high. Slowly add in spinach while blender is running and let run until smooth. Add additional coconut or plain water until desired consistency is achieved. Serve over ice and add straw to enjoy.
If using a high-speed blender such as Vitamix, place all ingredients at once, add ice and mix on high until smooth.
*Coconut water is Mother Nature’s “Gatorade,” replenishing essential electrolytes after a workout, but without the worthless refined sugar, artificial sweeteners, colors and additives. Choose raw coconut water, such as Harmless Harvest, for maximum nutrients.
