RAW-recipe #3 part B "Mint Carob smoothie"

This peppermint oil, carob powder, almond milk and banana smoothie is another drink on our list of favorites. Next week we're going to do a step by step for fresh almond milk so stay tuned. Below is a sweet tasty treat that is low in calories, high in potassium, and low in fat. 

You can purchase carob powder at a health food store like Sprouts and if you want to cut down on time and price you can buy already made Almond milk, but it needs to be sweetened. Lastly make sure your bananas are completely frozen. 



Prep time: 5 minutes
Servings: 1

Ingredients:

8 oz. almond milk
1/4 tsp. peppermint oil
2 frozen bananas
2 Tbs. carob powder





 Directions:

Fill the blender to the 8 oz. mark, add carob, frozen banana and mint. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour into a glass and garnish with fresh mint leaf, drink immediately. The consistency will be smooth but not thick, you can add more frozen banana if you prefer it to be thicker.





ENJOY!
