Ingredients

2 bananas
1 cup water
2 to 3 tablespoons raw cocoa nibs
2 tablespoons maca powder
2 to 3 tablespoons agave syrup
1 young Thai coconut
2 dates
Couple handfuls of cashews (soaked) or raw almonds
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cardamom
Pinch of sea salt
1/2 teaspoon peppermint (you can use a peppermint tea bag for this)
8 ice cubes
Handful of walnuts
1 tablespoon goji berries

Recipe Directions

1. Open the coconut. Save the coconut water and spoon out the meat.

2. Put the nuts in the blender and add some coconut water (maybe 1 cup?) and blend.

3. Then add the rest of the ingredients, including some of the coconut meat (1/2 cup?), except the walnuts and goji berries.  Blend.

4. Add the ice cubes at the end. It should be a somewhat thick consistency.

5. Pour the mixture into a separate container in order to be able to use the blender again, or use a food processor.

6. Put the walnuts, goji berries, and about a tablespoon of cocoa nibs in the blender/food processor and pulse until chopped into little chunks (not too fine).

7. Pour the chocolate smoothie into a cup.

8. Sprinkle with walnut/goji/cocoa mix and a little peppermint, too, if you like.

This looks soooo amazing. A suggestion: Make the topping first in the blender and set aside. That way the blender is dry for the nut mixture and one doesn't need to wash/dry the blender caraf before making the next mixture. This doesn't effect the smoothie, only the dishwasher. :-)
