Buddha Blends: Mango Maca Madness
It’s mango season, and that makes me so happy! Growing up, my family used to make an awesome drink called a “mango shake” which was full of mangoes, condensed milk and sugar (not the healthiest refreshment). My version uses young coconut to provide the creamy texture and flavour. It’s 100% dairy free, sugar free and cruelty free, with the nutritional benefits of maca to boot! Enjoy :)
This recipe serves 2.
Appliances you will need:
- Blender (I use a vitamix which is a high speed blender)
Ingredients (I use good local organic produce - if you can, you should too!):
- Water and flesh from 1 whole young coconut
- 2 large mangoes peeled and seeded
- 1 tbs maca powder
- 2 cup ice
After preparing all of the above:
Place all ingredients in a blender along with a dash of good vibes and blend on high speed until smooth. Pour into tall glasses and enjoy!
Om nom nom!
