Notes

• Great for constipation or variable/ nervous digestion (vata type of digestion).

• Substitute another less fatty plant-based milk for the coconut milk if kapha or pitta/kapha. Increase the amount of ginger if kapha.

• Serve on its own as a quick breakfast or snack. All smoothies are best during the warmer months.
