The most terrifying five minutes of my life, but now that it’s over, I’m kinda proud of this

[nobody’s going to save you. no one’s going to cut you down, cut the thorns thick around you. no one’s going to storm the castle walls nor kiss awake your birth, climb down your hair, nor mount you onto the white steed. there is no one who will feed the yearning. face it. you will have to do, do it yourself.]

— Gloria Anzaldúa.

Coffee Date Smoothie

I was getting myself ready for a 12 mile canoe trip and was inspired to create this drink with a bit of a caffeine kicker.  For best results, cold brew the coffee in advance. Our recipe for cold brewed coffee is here.

Coffee Date Smoothie: 1 frozen organic banana (broken into pieces) - if using fresh add ice 4 organic dates (pitted) ½ cup cold brewed coffee concentrate 1 cup organic hemp milk 3 T organic quick oats (I used One Degree) ½ t organic cinnamon (I actually used pumpkin spice)

In a Vitamix or high speed mixer mix the ingredients in the above order from low speed to high. Spend 20-30 seconds on the highest speed. Enjoy!
