Ingredients

  • 1 heaped cup mixed red berries (I did fresh strawberries + frozen cherries)
  • 1 small beet, peeled and chopped
  • ½ ripe banana, preferably frozen
  • 1 pitted Medjool date
  • 1 tablespoon raw cacao powder
  • 2 teaspoons coconut butter
  • ½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup non-dairy milk

Optional Add-Ins

Instructions

  • In an upright blender, combine the berries, chopped beet, banana, date, cacao powder, coconut butter, lemon juice, vanilla, and plant milk. Throw in any add-ins you may be using as well. Blend the mixture on high until smooth and creamy. Pour into a glass and garnish with shaved bits of coconut butter and a dusting of cacao powder if you like. Enjoy!

Equipment

Recipe Notes

  • I think a stronger blender is preferred here. I use a high-speed blender, and I still chop up the beet into relatively small pieces so that the motor doesn't struggle too much.
A super satiating blend with berries, vanilla, coconut butter & cacao powder. The berry beet velvet smoothie makes a hearty and vibrant breakfast.
