We’ve been on a smoothie kick over the past few months and we’re trying out all kinds of new combinations.

My kids love yogurt in their smoothies, so that’s usually how we make them in the morning. But, I’m lactose-intolerant. So that means I have to take a Lactaid pill in order to share their smoothie.

Sometimes I substitute the yogurt for coconut milk to make it a dairy free smoothie. And now I’m trying coconut water smoothies!

It’s pretty easy to make smoothies with coconut water. And by adding the banana, it still has a creamy consistency.

I’ve actually found several smoothie recipes with coconut water that have turned out tasty. It’s been a great way to incorporate coconut water into my diet (I have a hard time drinking it straight from the container).

I’m pretty excited to share my coconut water berry smoothie recipe with you today. I even sprinkle in some chia seeds for extra protein and fiber.
