What you'll need
Directions
-
Wash all produce well.
-
Peel beet.
-
Juice sweet potatoes and beets separately. You really only need about 1 cup of sweet potato juice and ¼ cup of beet juice, but feel free to add more. Set beet juice aside.
-
Place the frozen fruit, sweet potato juice, coconut milk, ginger, and turmeric in a blender, and blend until smooth.
-
Pour a tablespoon of beet juice in the bottom of the glass and swirl it just a little to come about an inch up the sides.
-
Gently spoon the smoothie into the glass. The beet juice will start to come up the sides and swirl into the smoothie.
-
Top with more beet juice if desired, or stir with a spoon for more swirl effect before serving.
