Pretty in Pink Smoothie

This raw, vegan, gluten- and soy-free strawberry-banana smoothie was contributed by Gena Hamshaw, from Choosing Raw.

Serves: 2

• 2 large, frozen bananas
• 1 1/3 cups frozen strawberries
• 1–1 1/2 cups almond milk (vary this depending on how thick you like a smoothie)
• 1 tbsp coconut butter (I use the Artisana brand—you can substitute another nut butter if you like)
• 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 2–4 ice cubes

1. Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender until smooth.
