Hemp Tropical Island Smoothie

Here’s a refreshing recipe for a Hemp Tropical Island Smoothie:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup coconut milk (or any plant-based milk)
• 1/2 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or frozen)
• 1/2 cup mango chunks (fresh or frozen)
• 1/2 banana (fresh or frozen)
• 2 tablespoons hemp seeds
• 1 tablespoon hemp protein powder
• 1 tablespoon shredded coconut
• 1 teaspoon chia seeds
• 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• A handful of ice cubes (optional, for a thicker smoothie)

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients: Make sure the pineapple, mango, and banana are cut into chunks and ready to blend. Measure out all the other ingredients.
2. Blend: Add the coconut milk, pineapple, mango, banana, hemp seeds, hemp protein powder, shredded coconut, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract into a blender.
3. Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a bit more coconut milk to reach your desired consistency.
4. Taste and Adjust: Taste the smoothie and add more sweetener if needed. If you prefer it colder or thicker, add a few ice cubes and blend again.
5. Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately.

Tips:

• Add Greens: For an extra nutritional boost, add a handful of spinach or kale. The taste will be masked by the tropical fruits.
• Protein Boost: You can add an extra tablespoon of hemp protein powder if you want more protein.
• Toppings: Top your smoothie with a sprinkle of shredded coconut, hemp seeds, or a few pineapple chunks for added texture and flavor.
