Ingredients

  • 1 cup yacon root peeled and sliced into chunks
  • 1 cup baby kale packed
  • 1 cup frozen mango chunks for creaminess and chill
  • 0.5 cup cucumber chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger peeled and grated
  • 1 tbsp hemp seeds for healthy fats
  • 1.5 cups unsweetened coconut water or filtered water
  • 1 tsp fresh lime juice to brighten flavors

Notes

If you cannot find fresh yacon root, you can substitute with 1 tablespoon of yacon syrup and an extra half-cup of cucumber. Store leftovers in an airtight glass jar for up to 24 hours, though separation is natural; shake well before drinking.
