Is it even St Patricks Day if you don’t have yourself a creamy, dreamy, light and green-y shamrock shake?! Sorry, that was terrible I know. I could go back and delete it but wheres the fun in that?!
You guys, this smoothie . . . honestly, I have no words!
Subtly sweet, seriously creamy, spiked with the perfect hit of vanilla, a hint of minty freshness & it’s choc-full of choc chips!
You can’t beat a classic like cookies and cream & adding a touch of matcha, a hint of mint + some extra chocolate = best idea, ever!
A matcha made in heaven! Sorry #notsorry it had to be done!
Not only does it taste incredible but, it also packs a nutritional punch!
It’s rich in antioxidants, high in calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron & fiber.
It’s a natural anti-inflammatory!
Great for stabilizing blood sugar, balancing hormones, enhancing mood, aid concentration & restoring energy levels (both mental & physical).
And, it’s packed with protein & gut healing goodness!
Super smoothie say whatt?!
So much goodness in one pretty little cup!
Healthified or not, I can’t think of a better way to celebrate St Patricks day or the fact that we simply made it through the day than with a cup of this deliciousness!
You in?! Of course you are, you’re cool like that!
Gluten Free – Dairy Free (if you want) – BANANA FREE (!!) – DATE FREE – Sugar free – Low carb – Paleo – Keto – 100% vegan friendly! But most importantly it really tastes like an absolute dream and St Patricks day celebrating or not, you need it in your life because, yum!
From my heart to yours, enjoy xo
