Ingredients

  • 2 cups water or 1 cup water and 1 cup ice, OR 2 cups unsweetened almond, hemp, cashew or coconut milk
  • 1 banana peeled
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond butter or any other unsweetened nut or seed butter
  • 2 tablespoons hemp protein powder
  • 2-3 tablespoons cacao powder preferably raw
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt preferably sea or Himalayan
  • 1 or 2 Medjool dates pitted OR 1 or 2 drops unrefined liquid stevia, optional

Instructions

  • Place all the ingredients in a blender and process until pureed. Enjoy!
  • SUPER-POWER IT:
  • For an energy boost, try adding 1 teaspoon maca powder or ¼-1/2 teaspoon matcha (Japanese ground green tea), which does contain caffeine (which is one of the foods we stay away during the detox), but since it has so many health benefits and a low caffeine content, it’s worth considering.
