Fruit and Mint Smoothie Boost

I've tried a ton to smoothie concoctions to boost my potassium and omega 3 intake but this one was the clear winner.  I blend this at night, fridge it, and drink it as my mid-morning snack.  If I'm using it as a pre-gym smoothie, I just throw some protein powder right in.


Although fresh fruit is always best, I use frozen organic fruit- fair trade whenever possible.  It can appear to be a pricey indulgence at first but if you buy large bags of fruit, I promise it will go far.

THE STUFF

1 cup coconut water
1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk (I like vanilla)
1/4 cup strawberries
1/4 cup mangoes
1/4 cup peaches
1/4 cup pineapple
2-3 springs mint
1 heaping tbsp ground flaxseed
1/2 banana

BLEND IT UP!
