Orange Fabulous Smoothie
This could be my favorite smoothie of all time. It reminds me of those Orange Julius drinks (made with sherbert) my mother used to love. If you don’t have Camu powder in your pantry, you should, especially now that cold and flu season is here! Drink this and you will be a cold and flu fighter!!! I also love that the hemp seeds in here give an added punch of a “perfect” protein (meaning an ideal balance of Omega 3 – Omega 6). To make coconut ice, simply fill an ice cube tray with coconut water – a handy little smoothie trick. All this fabulousness with no added sweetener!
Ingredients
2 Tbsp raw cashew butter (or sub with 2 Tbsp raw cashews soaked for 15 min)
