Step 2. Blend the ingredients together until smooth and creamy throughout.
Step 3. Pour into glasses and sprinkle with a pinch of hemp seeds before serving.
Notes
This smoothie makes two small drinks or one medium size drink.Ensure the chopped pieces of fruit are small enough for your blender to handle.Variations
To save time buy bags of mixed mango and pineapple from the frozen section of the supermarket for use in your smoothies.
For a thicker, more satiating mango pineapple smoothie, consider adding in 1-2 tablespoons of gluten free rolled oats or soaked raw buckwheat groats before blending.
Rolled oats are not considered raw unless specified on the packaging.
Plant milk - Swap the coconut water out with almond milk,oat milk or coconut milk instead.
Orange - Using the freshly squeezed juice of half a small orange makes a fabulous swap for lime zest! You should slightly reduce the amount of liquid you add to the blender.
Leftovers and storing.Best when served immediately or kept covered in a suitable container in the fridge for 2-3 days. If the ingredients seperate just give the drink a stir with a spoon before serving.Freeze any leftovers to save waste and keep your smoothie mixture colourful and nutritious for another time.
