We often get asked what the best mixer is for our smoothies – particularly if you don’t want them too sweet. Here’s a handy little guide to get you started. Our top favourites are mixing Coco Loco with coconut water and Broccoli & the Beast with soya milk. Tell us yours!

Coconut Water for Smoothies

Coconut water has soared in popularity recently, and it’s not hard to see why. Refreshing, nutritious and one of the healthiest options to add to our smoothie mixes (other than water itself!). Try adding Coconut water to one of our smoothies and let us know what you think.

Health Benefits of Coconut Water

  • Bursting with natural electrolytes, it’s great for rehydrating after exercise or on a hot summers day
  • Lower in sugar than fruit juice
  • Full of antioxidants

Soya milk is the perfect plant based option to create a smooth and filling smoothie. It’s a healthier alternative to cow’s milk, making it a great option for a healthy smoothie. Try adding soya milk to one of our smoothies and let us know what you think.
