The Raw Truth

Thin Mint

This smoothie was inspired by everyone’s favorite Girl Scout cookie. For a different treat, you can dehydrate this smoothie into rawies.

SERVES 1 OR 2

6 dates, seeded

1½ cups filtered water

1 large sprig mint

3 tablespoons raw carob powder

1 cup Coconut Milk

4 bananas, peeled, frozen, and thickly sliced

Place the dates in a small bowl, cover with the water, and soak for about 1 hour, or until soft. Place the dates and their soaking water in a blender,
add the mint and carob powder, and blend until smooth. Blend in the coconut milk and the bananas until smooth. Pour into a tall glass and serve.
