I regularly turn to smoothies to fortify my kids. I put more effort into making up entertaining names for them than I do for mixing them. I don’t usually follow a recipe but I was trying to perfect this one for you all. The Big Guy says today, “Raspberry Rush again? We’ve had it three times this week!” I should have called it something else. There would have been no comments. They drank it every time.
Raspberry Rush Smoothie
- 1 cup of coconut water
- 1 cup of coconut milk
- 1 cup of raspberries
- 1 large frozen banana
- 1/2 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1/2 cup cashews
- 2 Tbsp flax meal
Blend on high speed up to a minute. I make all my smoothies in a Vita-Mix blender. If using a regular blender, decrease fruit and keep liquid same or vice versa.
Serves 3-4

That look reaaaaaaally tasty!
Sorry, that looks reaaaaaaally tasty!
Sounds yummy! It’s on the list to try. I also do a chocolate spinach smoothie that everyone enjoys. Little Guy, especially.
My kids recently tried one with Spinach in it (yep I said Spinach) and they LOVED it! Here’s the recipe in case you would like to try it.
Spinach (fresh not frozen)
banana
mint
pineapple juice
Mmmmm!…..this is one of my favorites – when there’s any left.
