Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 cups coconut water frozen into ice cubes*
  • 1 1/2 cups coconut water
  • 1/4 cup dried unsweetened, shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup unsalted macadamia nuts
  • 2 tsps maca powder
  • 2 drops Stevia optional
  • Superfood BOOST
  • Add 1 teaspoon maqui berry powder for anti-aging
  • antioxidants and a stunningly colored smoothie, to boot

Instructions
 

  • The night before, pour two cups of coconut water into an ice cube tray and freeze. (This is your coconut ice).
  • In a small skillet, toast the coconut over medium-high heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning, until golden (about 2 minutes). Transfer immediately to a bowl and let cool.
  • Blend the toasted coconut, macadamia nuts, maca, and coconut water together into a creamy milk base.
  • Once smooth, add the coconut ice and blend until frosty - first low then high (about 15-30 seconds).

Notes

1. Depending on how frosty you like it, add more coconut ice!
2. Add 1/4 teaspoon vanilla or almond extract for varied flavor.
