Shamrock Shake Substitute: Healthy Mint Smoothie Recipe



1/2 Avocado
handful spinach (1/2 cup +/-)
1/2 frozen banana (careful not to use too much banana as the banana flavor can overwhelm the mint flavor)
1/4 to 1/3 C unsweetend vanilla almond milk
1/4 to 1/3 C coconut milk (I used canned coconut milk)
1/4 tsp peppermint extract (I added a little extra because I like the peppermint flavor. Adjust to taste.)
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1 TBS coconut nectar (you could try subbing maple syrup, honey, or a soaked date)

This isn't an exact science; experiment to adapt flavors to your liking. Blend in a blender. Double the recipe for shakes for two!
