While dreaming of the beach I created this Mojito Smoothie filled with mint, lime and coconut!
These flavours are lively and refreshing, just like the drinks I like to enjoy pool or beach-side but it’s a quick & healthy smoothie to give you energy in the morning.
You can make this smoothie anytime and like me, dream of soaking in the sunshine!
I love regular mojitos, especially the freshness that comes from the mint and lime. So I figured, why not put all of those delicious ingredients into a refreshing smoothie!
The coconut milk and apple adds creaminess to round out the flavours of this Mojito Smoothie. This smoothie is one of my favourites to make, even in the Winter to freshen things up! Plus, I’ve added a cup of spinach for a hit of greens too!

Love this recipe. I never thought if adding coconut milk to a smoothie and found the taste it adds amazing. I there in a few cubes of frozen spinach as well. You couldn’t taste the spinach and it made it look even greener.
Thanks Kortney! So glad to hear you loved it AND I love your idea of adding a few cubes of frozen spinach! I will have to try that next time I make this too.
