Ingredients
  

1 cup frozen raspberries

1 banana, sliced and frozen

1 cup coconut milk (canned or carton)

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain or coconut-flavored for extra coconut goodness)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional for added nutrition)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for extra flavor)

Fresh raspberries and coconut flakes for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients to ensure efficiency throughout the process. Slice and freeze the banana ahead of time if you haven't done so already.

    Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, add the frozen raspberries, frozen banana slices, and coconut milk. If you prefer a creamier texture, start with a little less coconut milk and add more as needed.

      Incorporate Yogurt and Sweetness: Add the Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and chia seeds (if using) to the blender. For a hint of extra flavor, include the vanilla extract.

        Blend Until Smooth: Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides if necessary to ensure everything is mixed together.

          Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more of coconut milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.

            Serve and Garnish: Pour the delicious smoothie into chilled glasses. If you'd like, top with fresh raspberries and sprinkle coconut flakes for a beautiful presentation.

              Sip and Enjoy: Enjoy your Tropical Bliss Frozen Raspberry Coconut Smoothie immediately while it's icy cold and refreshing!
