Ingredients
- 1⁄4 cup cashews, soaked for 4 hours and drained
- 1 frozen banana,* cut into chunks
- 3⁄4 cup unsweetened canned coconut milk**
- 3⁄4 cup water
- 1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp virgin coconut oil
- 1 Tbsp flaxseed oil
- 1 Tbsp raw honey
- 1⁄8 tsp ground cardamom
Directions
- Combine all ingredients in a blender and buzz until smooth.
- Pour into two glasses and serve immediately.
Notes
- *To freeze a banana: Peel it first, and then place it in a freezer safe container.
- **Make sure to stir the coconut milk thoroughly before measuring, since the cream tends to migrate to the top of the can. Store the leftover coconut milk for up to one week in the refrigerator or for months in the freezer.
- Add a cup of blueberries for a blue version.
