Tropical Coconut Smoothie Bowl

by Hannah Theisen Leave a Comment

Want to seriously impress your brunch guests? Go beyond #teaandtoast and pair your favorite Numi tea with a coconut smoothie bowl! Your table will be filled with beautiful colors, and your guests can customize their own smoothie bowl to go with their favorite flavor of tea. My favorite combination is my Numi Toasted Rice tea with a tropical fruit and coconut smoothie bowl.

Coconut Smoothie Bowl

Tropical smoothie recipe

1 mature coconut (you can find these at your local asian supermarket)

1 small frozen banana

¼ cup frozen mango chunks

½ cup coconut milk or coconut water (I prefer full-fat coconut milk for a creamier, more decadent smoothie)

¼ cup ice

a tiny splash of vanilla

Toppings

Mango, dragon fruit, coconut meat

Assembly

Drain the coconut water from your coconut and split in half. This will form the bowl for your smoothie! Reserve the coconut water, you can either drink it on it’s own or incorporate into your smoothie. Scrape some of the coconut meat out of your “bowl” and reserve for topping. Blend your smoothie ingredients, pour into your coconut bowl and top with coconut meat and fruit.

Pair with Numi Toasted Rice green tea and enjoy!

This recipe allows for endless variations. Be creative and try different combinations until you find the perfect smoothie for you! I also like:

Golden Chai tea + chocolate and peanut butter coconut bowl

Skip the mango and add a few tablespoons of peanut butter to your smoothie. Top with coconut flakes, dark chocolate chunks and a chocolate drizzle. Pair with Numi Golden Chai tea.

Rooibos tea +  berry coconut bowl

Substitute strawberries for mango in your smoothie and top with blueberries, raspberries and cherries. Pair with Numi Rooibos tea.

We’d love to see your favorite smoothie bowl and Numi tea combo- upload a photo  of your creation to Instagram and tag @numiorganictea!

🌱 Why do grades of tea matter? The larger the leaf, the greater its surface area for steeping and the more complex the infusion. Numi uses only hand-plucked, fuller leaf quality tea for a pure taste that balances depth and nuance. Many bagged teas are machine-picked and use low-quality fannings and dust. Smaller grades release tannins more quickly, leading to a dark, bitter-tasting cup. Wake up with fuller leaf teas that steep slowly and evenly, delivering a smooth, rich flavor. When you drink our tea, you’ll immediately taste the difference. ☕️ Find our Breakfast Blend and over 40 delicious organic blends on our Amazon store. Link in bio.
