Raspberries have the antioxidants, scientific studies show that these compounds in the berries have health benefits against aging, cancer inflammation and neuro-degenerative diseases.

Lime is packed with potassium like a banana without the calories, putting the lime in the coconut and eating it all up never tasted better!

Ingredients

1 cup of raspberries
1 cup of coconut milk
1 cup of coconut water from a young coconut
1 cup of coconut meat from a young coconut
1 tbsp of coconut oil
½ small avocado
½ fresh squeezed lime
Sweetener * drink can be tart tasting

Instructions

Place raspberries, coconut meat, avocado in the blender.
Poor coconut milk, water and lime juice in.
Add coconut oil and sweetener. When you add your choice of sweetener keep it in a low glycemic value especially if you are dealing with candida.
Blend and taste. Adjust if needed, adding more avocado and coconut meat will make it thicker and pudding like.

Enjoy: This makes a great start to your morning, sometimes I will make it thick and mix in nuts or granola for spoon and bowl enjoyment.

* When you add your choice of sweetener keep it in a low glycemic value especially if you are dealing with candida. Stevia can be a good choice, or you can keep more in the line of using the whole coconut and use coconut palm sugar. We have recently discovered Xylitol and love the taste with no strange aftertaste to it.
