Ingredients

    5 serving Chaokoh Coconut Milk 2.7oz/80g/0.33cup=1 serv) 13.5 oz/440mL container (the whole can)
    8 oz Schwans Tropical Smoothie Pack
    0.5 tsp Cinnamon, ground
    1 tsp Vanilla Extract
    0.33 tbsp Nutiva Coconut Oil extra virgin non-GMO

    12 gram Salba Whole Chia Seed 1 tbsp/12g=1 serv

Tips

May have to stop and scrape sides and blades (turn machine off first), to prevent motor from binding up. I added chia last, as I didn't care whether it stayed whole or not, and I know it would start to thicken even more once it hit the liquid.


Directions

Pour coconut milk and frozen tropical fruit pack (Schwans pack is 8 oz) into blender and blend. Add flavorings and chia seed, blend some more until desired consistency. I started with half the can of coconut milk until the frozen fruit got blended enough to freeze the milk and make it stop blending. Then added more milk and poked mixture around the blade, and reblended. After adding the chia seed, I let it sit a bit to allow the chia to thicken.

Serving Size: 2 mugs (about 24 oz total, so 12 oz mugs)
