Bananas provide a creamy, cloud-like consistency, then the peaches and strawberries provide a punchy sweetness to this smoothie.

Kale provides iron and anti-oxidant nutrients, and the coconut water replenishes and hydrates the body, adding a sweet, nutty flavor to the smoothie.

You can add in any supplements you like!

We love hemp protein or seeds for essential fatty acids, healthy fats and protein, chia seeds for energy, hydration and protein, and maca powder for hormone balancing and enhancement.
