Print Recipe

A quick and refreshing smoothie blending creamy coconut milk with tart frozen raspberries, perfect for summer or any time you need a cool, delicious treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (140g) frozen raspberries
  • 1 cup (240ml) full-fat canned coconut milk
  • ½ cup (120g) plain Greek yogurt (optional, can substitute with dairy-free coconut yogurt for vegan)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup, to taste
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 3 to 4 ice cubes (optional for extra frostiness)

Instructions

  1. Gather your ingredients: frozen raspberries, coconut milk, Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ice cubes if using.
  2. Add raspberries and coconut milk to a high-speed blender. Blend on high for about 30 seconds until smooth and pink.
  3. Add Greek yogurt and sweetener. Blend again for 15-20 seconds until creamy and smooth. Add more coconut milk or water if too thick.
  4. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more honey or syrup if desired. Blend briefly to mix.
  5. Add vanilla extract and ice cubes if using. Blend for another 20-30 seconds to achieve frosty texture.
  6. Check consistency; it should be thick but pourable. Pour into a glass or mason jar.
  7. Optional: garnish with fresh raspberries or shredded coconut before serving.

Notes

Use full-fat canned coconut milk for best creaminess. Frozen raspberries provide chill and tartness; fresh raspberries can be used with added ice cubes. Adjust sweetness to taste. For thicker smoothies, add half a frozen banana or chia seeds. Store leftovers in fridge up to 24 hours and stir before drinking.
