Strawberry, almond and coconut shake
Hello hello! I’m keeping this post short and sweet because I have to run some errands today! I’ve been thinking of transferring all the recipes from my magazine to the blog so it’s easier to search for them and also easier to print them…so here’s the first one of the few I’m bringing over to this space.
This smoothie is a healthy alternative to the usual strawberry milkshake and it has a few skin benefits too! Vitamin C and ellagic acid in the strawberries help restore skin elasticity, while the healthy fats from almond butter and coconut milk keep the skin radiant. Feel free to substitute half of the coconut milk with other milks if the coconut milk on its own is too rich for your palate.
