Healthy Shamrock Shake {Mint-Flavored Smoothie}

Print Options
Description
My version of this classic has spinach and mint for natural green coloring (and vitamins, minerals and fiber), banana for a full serving of fruit, and coconut milk for healthy fat. And it’s completely naturally sweetened with stevia and the sweetness from the banana. But it tastes completely indulgent.
Ingredients
- ¼ cups Plain Unsweetened Almond Milk
- ¼ cups Canned Light Coconut Milk (or Canned Full-fat Coconut Milk For An Even Thicker, More Decadent Shake)
- ¼ teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
- ⅛ teaspoons Pure (natural) Mint Extract (See Note)
- 1 whole Packet Stevia (See Note)
- 1 pinch Sea Salt
- 1 cup Organic Baby Spinach
- ¼ cups Fresh Mint Leaves
- 1 whole Large Ripe Banana (with Brown Spots), Peeled And Cut Into 6 Pieces And Frozen
Preparation
1. Add all ingredients into a blender in the order listed, put the lid on and process until smooth and creamy.
2. Serve immediately.
Notes:
Mint extract: You can add more to taste, but many brands I’ve tried are very strong and if you use too much it can be overpowering, which is why I recommend starting out with just 1/8 teaspoon.
Stevia: As a guideline on how sweet 1 packet of stevia is: the amount of stevia in 1 packet measures 1/2 teaspoon, which is about as sweet as 2 to 3 teaspoons of regular sugar.
Topping/garnish ideas: A sprig of fresh mint, cacao nibs, shaved dark chocolate, or dark chocolate chips.
