MandoBerry Smoothie
Love the Mandalorian and making themed treats? I’ve got you covered. I have done an entire series of Star Wars themed smoothies, you can get the whole booklet here.
“Quick and easy to make, the creaminess of coconut mixed with tart, sweet berries will make this smoothie a favorite in your home.”
I had seen a lot of Star Wars themed treats but many of them required a lot of different ingredients, took time to make and while I am creative, when it comes to being artsy with food, I am not that person. I wanted to create something for my fellow “want to make something fun, tasty, star wars themed but don’t want to have to be picasso“. I ended up with an entire booklet of smoothie recipes, that didn’t even include all of my creations, so maybe there will be a second edition one day.

Sarah’s Tips
To achieve the color in the photo I used strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and blackberries. Blackberries and Blueberries alone will give you a purplish color, Strawberries give a pink color and Raspberries give a slightly deep pink color.
For a thicker smoothie use frozen berries, If you aren’t concerned about thickness fresh berries will do.
Instead of shredded coconut, you can freeze canned coconut milk in ice trays, so you can get the same benefits but a smoother texture. You can also use coconut meat if you can get your hands on fresh coconut.
