Not-Completely-Sinful ‘Coconut Chia & Mango Daiquiri’

If you like the idea of drinking to better health, give superfood-infused cocktails a try this summer. (Admittedly it’s a stretch to label anything with alcohol “healthy” but at least this daiquiri has the benefit of vitamins and anti-oxidants!)

Aboutlife Natural Marketplace Wellness Ambassador, Vladia Cobrdova has created some delicious and hydrating Summer cocktail recipes filled with superfoods which we’re featuring over the festive season.  (If you missed the first instalment check out: Cranberry & Aloe Cooler Superfood Cocktail)

Coconut Chia & Mango Daiquiri

Chia seeds are highest plant based source of Omega 3, fibre and protein. Loaded with vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants.

Ingredients

  • 60 mls of Vodka (My personal favourite for flavoured cocktails is SKYY)
  • 1 x freshly juiced Lemon
  • 1 cheek of frozen Mango
  • 150 mls Coconut water (Our favourite is Meko coconut water.)
  • 1 table spoon  of Chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon of chlorophyll

Method

Blend all the ingredients in a blender until smooth and pour into a daiquiri glass (…or something more inventive such as the jar as shown!)  Top with shredded coconut and a sprinkle of Chia seeds.

    Oh yum! I’d never normally have considered chia seeds and vodka in the same sentence let alone a cocktail. Will definitely try this one, thanks BWA!
