This vegan mango creamsicle shake is...
Naturally sweetened.
Cold.
Creamy.
Frosted.
Silky.
Mango-brightened.
Coconut-splashed.
This dreamy delight is made by blending together frozen mango, chilled coconut cream, a hefty pour of plant milk, a few ice cubes, a couple medjool dates, and a tiny splash of vanilla. Using frozen mango results in a thick, shake-like treat, and the coconut cream weaves its richness throughout. The medjool dates offer natural sweetness, and the vanilla bumps up the "creamsicle" factor.
This sweet summer dessert comes together in just 5 minutes, and it makes two servings. Share that goodness with someone you love or hold on tight and savor every last drop yourself.
I hope you're having a wonderful start to the week. Here's an energizing tune that'll make even the most manic of Mondays feel easy breezy...
