I’m always looking for new refreshing drinks and smoothie ideas, prepared with simple and healthy ingredients. They are the kind of drinks you can enjoy all day long, whether for breakfast, after a workout session or just when chilling by the pool. It’s also for me a great way to add more fruits to my diet in the most delicious way.
Today’s smoothie has it all: a vibrant pink color, with a sweet tart flavor and an ultra creamy and rich texture. It is prepared with frozen raspberries, full-fat coconut milk, and lightly sweetened to your liking. Here’s a drink you are going to make often – kids and grownups love it!
Ingredients for this Raspberry Coconut Smoothie
- Frozen raspberries. Using them frozen rather than fresh creates a thick, creamy and frothy texture to the smoothie.
- Coconut milk. Make sure you use full-fat coconut milk for a super creamy texture.
- Natural sweetener of choice. Because I created this smoothie vegan, I recommend agave syrup for a neutral flavor (or maple syrup if you are looking for stronger notes).
The touch of cardamom is totally optional in this smoothie recipe, but it will add some delicate and subtle flavors to the drink.
Flavor variations
This raspberry coconut smoothie tastes amazing as is, but you could also play with the flavors and make it your own version. Here are just a few ideas:
- Add fresh lime zest and/or lime juice for more refreshing flavors.
- Throw in some mint leaves.
- Make it more energetic by adding a banana or a spoonful of cashew butter.
- Consider other healthy add-ins such as chia seeds or flaxseed.
Raspberry coconut smoothie nutrition
This raspberry coconut smoothie is prepared with raw, natural ingredients and very lightly sweetened. Raspberries are a great source of vitamin C and fiber, while coconut milk contains important nutrients like manganese and copper.

Je ne pense jamais à faire des smoothies alors que j’ai souvent tout sous la main, dès que le soleil revient je m’y met 🙂
Del
Celui-ci est vraiment très simple à réaliser en plus et apporte des jolies couleurs, à défaut de ne pouvoir profiter du beau temps présentement. Aucune raison de s’en priver donc 🙂 Merci d’être passée par ici !

ton smoothie est terriblement appétissant! coco et framboise, 2 saveurs que j’apprécie particulièrement! LA douceur de la coco et l’acidité de la framboises, un mélange parfait à mes yeux! 😉
