That sounds awesome to me. Next summer I'm going to make that, thanks
I used to have a breakfast smoothie for years, mostly things like
berries (especially blueberries), yoghurt, raw cacao powder, coconut
oil, maca powder... all sorts of stuff. Whilst I wouldn't bother with
some of the more exotic ingredients these days, I really should get
back into the habit of making smoothies in warmer weather. I don't
know why I stopped, to be honest.
