A refreshing smoothie that’s filled with nutrient-dense ingredients beneficial to both kids and adults!

Smoothies are a perfect breakfast or snack for a busy family. But, not all smoothies are created equally. When making smoothies that sustain both you and your little ones, it’s key to include protein and healthy fats alongside the fruit and vegetables. This smoothie features protein-rich hemp seeds and chia seeds as well as pure coconut cream, a source of short-chain fatty acids that your body uses for energy immediately. Danielle’s recipe combines antioxidant-rich wild blueberries,  cucumber and fresh mint leaves to transform a simple berry smoothie into a refreshing drink that will naturally add pep to your step. Make this recipe work for your family by adding more or less fruit, additional hemp seeds or coconut cream or even a few dates to increase the sweetness - the sky is the limit!
