Purple Hawaiian Dream Smoothie Date Sweetened

Mysteriously seductive, packed with antioxidants and a symphony of plant-based nutrients, the purple hue comes from blueberries and cooked purple sweet potatoes or ube. Pineapple, coconut extract and ground ginger impart warm breezy tropical vibes, while vanilla and cardamom add delicate and beguiling floral notes. Whole dates make this smoothie lusciously sweet.

Equipment

Ingredients

1½ cup unsweetened plant milk
1½ cup blueberries
1½ cup unsweetened plant milk
1¼ cup pineapple, cubed*
½ cup cooked purple sweet potato or ube, peeled
3 Tbsp dates, sliced then measured**
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp ground cardamom
½ tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp coconut extract (add another ¼ tsp if you like a strong coconut flavor)
2 tsp ground flaxseed (optional)
1 cup leafy greens, loosely packed*** (optional)

Instructions

Place all ingredients in the bowl of a blender and process until smooth.
Makes approximately 32 ounces if using the greens (4 smallish smoothies, 3 medium smoothies, or 2 extra large smoothies).

Notes

* Fresh or frozen pineapple is best, canned is ok.

** Be sure to remove pits and stems.

*** I recommend a delicate baby green like baby arugula or baby kale, but any leafy green will work including lettuce.
