How do you make a vegan smoothie?
It’s important to use the right non-dairy milk to ensure a perfectly creamy smoothie base. Our pick? Coconut milk, especially if you want to get the most nutrition from your green smoothie. This information has been revealed in a recent study published in a scientific journal nutrients, coconut milk works best at releasing lutein (an antioxidant) from spinach. The study found that coconut milk without additives significantly improved lutein release by 42 percent, and coconut milk with additives improved lutein release by 25 percent. Plus, coconut milk provides a balanced, creamy blend for the ultimate refreshing smoothie.
A high-quality blender is also a must. A Vitamix has long been an industry favorite and for good reason. Much of Vitamix’s superior performance and ongoing success comes down to innovative engineering. Today, the machines operate on a vortex system, which, according to the brand, “systematically returns ingredients to the blades for fast, smooth mixing.” It features “aircraft-grade” stainless steel blades, a metal drive system and a powerful cooling-driven motor.
