Holy. Mother. Of. Pearl.

Tasting this smoothie was a total bliss moment.

I have been longing for summer to end and for fall to break (for, you know, the 2 weeks we get to enjoy fall in Georgia before it just crashes into winter.)  This smoothie tasted like fall in a glass.  It was flavors of spiced pumpkin pie and creamy nog and butternut and warm honey all wrapped up into one.

Here’s what went into the blender:

  • 1/2 cup coconut water
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1/2 cup mamey pulp
  • half a frozen banana
  • tbsp. chia seeds
  • tsp. cinnamon

I will be making this again and again.  If you can get your hands on a mamey, grab it, it is pure autumn joy!
