Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen wild blueberries thawed slightly for easier blending
- 0.5 cup raw cashews soaked for 2 hours for maximum creaminess
- 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk or any nut milk of choice
- 1 tbsp chia seeds for omega-3 fatty acids
- 1 tsp fresh ginger peeled and finely grated
- 2 tsp pure maple syrup optional, for added sweetness
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon adds warmth and depth
- 1 pinch sea salt to balance the flavors
Notes
To make ahead, portion the dry ingredients and blueberries into a freezer bag. For the best texture, soak cashews overnight in the refrigerator. If the smoothie is too thick, add an extra splash of almond milk until your desired consistency is reached. Store leftovers in an airtight jar for up to 24 hours (shake well before drinking).
