VANILLA COCONUT CASHEW LATTE SMOOTHIE

You’ll want to sip this Vanilla Coconut Cashew Latte Smoothie on repeat all day long. If you love flavours like vanilla, coconut, cashew and coffee you’re going to love this extra thick and creamy, latte-inspired smoothie. Check out my ideas below for taking this smoothie guideline and creating your own epic latte smoothie concoctions!


I’ve made this coconut cashew latte smoothie a bunch of different ways to play around with the volume and nutritional details. Obviously you can’t be adding endless amounts of coconut and cashew to your smoothie or you’ll be eating all your calories for the day at once. However, if you want to make a bigger serving size without adding a ton of calories, try adding a handful of frozen zucchini or cauliflower to it. You won’t taste them once they’re blended in but you’ll get more volume, more fibre and more nutrition and you can’t argue with that!

I’ve tried both zucchini and cauliflower in this one and both worked great. You’ll just need to add a bit more liquid such as water, more coffee, light coconut milk or almond milk along with the added veggies.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup brewed coffee (or 3/4 cup brewed coffee and 1/4 cup light coconut milk)
  • 1 serving (30 g) vegan vanilla protein powder 
  • 1/4 cup (30 g) raw cashews
  • 2 tbsp (15 g) unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 small frozen banana or 3-4 frozen sweet potato cubes (100 g of either or a combo of both)
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • generous pinch of sea salt
  • 3 ice cubes
  • optional: pulse in a few of whole coffee beans for a little added crunch!
  • optional superfood boosters: 2 tsp of maca or lucuma powder

Topping Ideas:

  • shredded coconut or toasted coconut flakes
  • coconut butter
  • coffee beans
  • tahini
  • almond butter
  • cacao nibs
  • chopped almonds or cashews
  • sliced banana

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and mix until thick and creamy (for best results, do not over blend. It should be just combined and creamy but if you blend too long, the heat from the blender will affect the creamy, frozen consistency).
