Bananas are rich in potassium, which helps balance electrolytes and support heart health. They also provide a natural sweetness, reducing the need for added sugars. Oat milk is a fantastic dairy-free alternative that is gentle on the digestive system and adds a creamy texture to the smoothie. The superfood shake enhances the nutrient profile, providing a boost of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Raw cacao is a powerful superfood known for its high antioxidant content and mood-boosting properties. Honey not only sweetens the smoothie naturally but also adds anti-inflammatory and antibacterial benefits. Optional ingredients like peanut butter, cinnamon, and mixed nuts can add protein, healthy fats, and extra flavor.

• Ensure your bananas are properly frozen. This will give your smoothie a thick, creamy consistency.
• Measure out all the ingredients before starting.
• In a blender, combine the frozen bananas, oat milk, superfood shake, raw cacao, and honey.
• Secure the lid tightly to prevent any spills.
• Blend all the ingredients on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Ensure there are no lumps, and the texture is even.
• If the shake is too thick, you can add a little more oat milk or water to adjust the consistency to your liking.

Optional Add-Ins

• For extra protein and flavor, add a spoonful of peanut butter.
• Sprinkle in some cinnamon for a warm, spicy note.
• Toss in a handful of mixed nuts for added crunch and nutrition.

Superfoods are sourced from wild or organic soil, soil that is rich in the natural microbes that live in the soil. These microbes enable the nutrients and minerals in the soil, to become bio-available to the plants; which in turn makes these nutrients available to us.

Our organic honey is harvested from bees that forage exclusively on the indigenous Fynbos vegetation, known for its rich biodiversity and aromatic plants. This local, organic honey not only offers a distinct taste but also embodies the essence of one of the world’s most unique floral landscapes.
