Scale
- 1 cup (150g) frozen dragon fruit (puree packs or cubes)
- 1 cup (240ml) full-fat coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon honey or agave nectar (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 cup (120ml) ice cubes
- 1/2 cup (120ml) unsweetened almond milk (can substitute oat milk or regular milk)

Instructions
- Measure out all ingredients: 1 cup frozen dragon fruit, 1 cup full-fat coconut milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon honey or agave nectar, 1/2 cup ice cubes, and 1/2 cup almond milk.
- Add frozen dragon fruit and coconut milk to a high-speed blender. Blend on high for about 30 seconds until smooth and creamy.

Use frozen dragon fruit for best texture and chill without dilution. Adjust sweetness and vanilla to taste. For thicker smoothie, add more frozen fruit or reduce almond milk. Can add protein powder or greens for variations. Consume immediately or store in fridge up to 24 hours, stir before serving.
