Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp Simple Homemade Date Syrup (or 1 to 2 dates, pitted and soaked in hot water to soften)
- 1 pear, cored and chopped
- 3 cups chopped kale
- 1 kiwi, peeled (or 1/2 cup pineapple chunks)
- 1/2 cup sliced cucumber (or chopped celery)
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut water
- Ice
- 1 tsp unsweetened shredded coconut for topping (optional)
Instructions
If you do not have Simple Homemade Date Syrup on hand, place 1 to 2 pitted dates into a small bowl of hot water. Let sit for 5 minutes to soften. This makes it easier to blend.
Place pear (with skin on), chopped kale, peeled kiwi (or pineapple), sliced cucumber with skin on (or celery), and Simple Homemade Date Syrup (or pitted and soaked dates), unsweetened plain coconut water and ice into a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour into two large glasses and (optional) top with a pinch of unsweetened shredded coconut. Enjoy!
