Best Chef Joeys Young Coconut Smoothie Recipes

VANILLA BEAN COCONUT YOGURT SMOOTHIE

Steps:

• Combine the water, honey and vanilla bean pod in a small saucepan over low heat. Simmer for 7 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the vanilla to infuse into the honey. Remove the vanilla pod and allow the mixture to cool completely, about 10 to 15 minutes.
• In a blender, combine some of the vanilla honey with the yogurt, mint and 1/2 tray of frozen coconut water cubes, or more for desired consistency. Puree until smooth, then pour into glasses and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint. Serve immediately.

CHEF JOEY'S YOUNG COCONUT SMOOTHIE

Steps:

• Grind up the cacao nibs in a coffee mill until it resembles coco powder. Set aside.
• Clean the berries and set aside.
• With a hammer and pointed screw driver make three holes in the top of the two young coconuts. Drain the milk out into a large measuring cup through a sieve.
• Cut the two young coconuts in half. My hubby uses his table saw and it works very nicely for this.
• Rinse the coconut insides to remove any of the outer shell that might have coated the coconut flesh.
• Scrape out all the flesh, get every bit as it's so delicious.
• Put the flesh and the coconut milk into a blender and process until well combined.
• Put the coconut mixture through the sieve again to remove the little pieces of shell. Put the coconut mixture into a container and set aside.
• Clean out the blender cup and lid and put the coconut milk/flesh mixture back into it. Add the one cup coconut milk or non-dairy milk, the banana, the ground cacao, vanilla, cinnamon and berries.
• Process until smooth and creamy.
• Drink ASAP!
• Bon Appetit!
