Baobab Smoothie TriColor
Creating a three-layer Smoothie – how does that work? I was busy thinking about it while I tried out my latest Smoothie creation: the Baobab Smoothie TriColor. Sweet blueberries, juicy raspberries and ripe bananas combined with baobab powder – a tempting idea. Ingredients not just thrown together but rather presented in layers.
Fresh Blueberries
For the Purple Blueberry Part:
- One cup of blueberries (frozen or fresh)
- ¾ tablespoon Baobab powder
- ¾ banana
- Agave syrup (to your liking)
- Some water
Put blueberries, banana and the baobab powder into the blender and fill with a little bit of water. Mix well and pour into a glass. Clean the blender and bowl quickly after mixing.
Fresh Raspberries
For the Pink Raspberry Part:
- One cup of raspberries (frozen or fresh)
- ¾ tablespoon Baobab powder
- ¾ banana
- Agave syrup (to your liking)
- Some soy or coconut milk
Put raspberries, baobab powder and banana into the blender and fill with some soy or coconut milk. Mix well and pour into a glass (preferably not yet into the same glass of the blueberry part). Again quickly clean the blender and mixing bowl.
Baobab Powder
For the Banana Part “Cream”:
- 1 ½ banana
- ¾ tablespoon Baobab powder
- Agave syrup (to your liking)
- Soy or coconut milk
Put banana and baobab powder into the blender and fill with fluid. This time you may use a bit more. Mix well and place the container aside.
The “Layering” of the Smoothie:
Take the glass with the blueberry smoothie and a Tablespoon. Pour the raspberry layer onto the blueberry part. To slow down the flow pour the raspberry smoothie onto the spoon and allow the mixture to drip on the layer below slowly. Repeat with the banana layer – again let the smoothie flow gently into the glass via a spoon.
The blueberry and raspberry smoothies’ consistency should be slightly thicker than that of the banana one. Be quick while preparing the smoothies but very careful while pouring the layers.
Preparation is easier if you:
- Prepare all ingredients in advance and place them on your worktop in the order of colors you would like to have as a final result.
- Use different glasses and containers for mixing the three different colors
- Put all other equipment you will need on the worktop before you start mixing (for example, spoons, towels, camera …)
Finally take a quick snapshot of your Baobab Smoothie TriColour and enjoy immediately as long as it is still cool.
