Ingredients
  

For the Avocado Basil Layer
  • 1 whole Avocado provides creaminess and healthy fats; for a lighter option, use 1/4 avocado
  • 1 whole Banana adds natural sweetness and texture; can substitute with a date for a lower glycemic index
  • 10 leaves Basil leaves infuses fresh, aromatic flavor; can be replaced with mint for a different twist
  • 1 cup Spinach adds nutrients without altering flavor; fresh kale can be substituted if desired
  • 1 cup Frozen mango contributes sweetness and tropical flavor; any other frozen fruit works too
  • 1 cup Coconut milk offers richness and creaminess; substitute with almond milk for a nut-free alternative
  • 2 tablespoons Maple syrup sweetens the smoothie naturally; honey or agave syrup can be used as alternatives
For the Beet Berry Layer
  • 1 medium Beet provides color and earthiness, rich in antioxidants; use pre-cooked beets for convenience
  • 1 cup Frozen blueberries adds sweetness and anti-inflammatory properties; substitute with any frozen berry if needed

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by gathering your blender and adding in the creamy avocado, half of the banana, fresh basil leaves, spinach, frozen mango, rich coconut milk, and a drizzle of maple syrup. Blend on high for about 30-45 seconds, until the mixture is smooth and velvety. Once blended, carefully divide the avocado basil layer into two glasses, creating a bright and inviting base for your smoothie.
  2. Next, rinse out your blender to keep flavors distinct, then add the remaining banana, chopped beet, and frozen blueberries along with more coconut milk. Blend these ingredients on high for 30-45 seconds until the mixture is creamy and well combined. Pour this layer gently over the avocado basil layer, tilting the glass slightly to maintain distinct layers.
  3. To elevate the presentation, garnish the top with fresh basil leaves and a handful of extra blueberries.
  4. Enjoy your stunning smoothie right away for the freshest taste. You can chill it for about 30 minutes for a colder beverage.
