Instructions

Add the unsweetened coconut milk to a high-speed blender first, along with the vanilla extract.
Add the frozen blueberries and unsweetened shredded coconut.
Add the ice cubes and a pinch of fine sea salt.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds until completely smooth.
Check consistency. If too thick, blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional coconut milk. If too thin, add a few extra ice cubes or frozen blueberries and blend again.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use unsweetened coconut milk to keep the smoothie naturally fruity and avoid added sugars. Frozen blueberries also help create a thick, cold texture without watering down the drink.
