How to Make It
Step 1
Scoop the chilled coconut cream from the top of the can of coconut milk and add to a blender. You can reserve the remaining milk for another recipe. Add the almond butter, syrup, 2 generous teaspoons of cocoa powder, the orange extract and ginger to a blender.
Step 2
Add the almond milk to the blender. Blend together until smooth and well combined. You can taste the smoothie and adjust seasonings and flavorings as desired, adding more orange, cocoa or sweetener. You may also add water as needed for a thinner smoothie.
Step 3
Once the smoothie is blended to your desired taste and consistency, transfer to a large serving glass. You may add ice to the glass if desired for a colder smoothie. Optionally dust with cocoa powder to serve.
