Refreshing Beet Mint Smoothie

IMG_20130217_123905

An awesomely refreshing smoothie, tastes amazing and blends perfectly if you have a strong blender, such as a Vitamix or Blendtec. Why…because we are blending beets! Yes. Real, whole beets!

Let us begin!

In your high powered blender, add in:

– The juice and meat of one whole fresh coconut

– Small handful of mint leaves

– 2 to 3 beets (depending on size), stems and leaves included

– 1 tbsp maca powder

– 1 tbsp organic powdered wheatgrass or fresh wheatgrass

Blend the mixture until it is smooth. You may want to gradually add in the beets, since they are harder to blend.

Pour it in your cup, or back into your coconut and sip out of a straw for a cool tropical drink.

Enjoy!
