Raw Superfood Mint Chip Shake
Spring is officially here, and we think it's safe to say we're ALL ready for it.
As nature sprouts back to life, why not stick with the green theme and give your body a burst of energy and superfood nutrition with a delicious plant-based mint chip shake!
This shake is full of chlorophyll, but you'd never know it because it certainly doesn't taste like a green smoothie - it's a creamy and refreshing mint chip shake.
Made without dairy, food dye, refined sugar or anything artificial, you can think of this as a better-for-you version of the popular fast food shamrock shake.
So instead of ...
- Dairy
- High fructose corn syrup
- “Natural” flavors
- Synthetic dyes
- More sugar
- Preservatives
- and yes more sugar
This recipe is full of ...
- Vitamins and minerals
- Chlorophyll from leafy greens and green superfoods
- Antioxidants and flavonoids from raw cacao
Plus of course tons of minty fresh flavor and a creamy texture all from healthy plant goodness. And don't forget those mint chocolate Essential bar chips!
