Ingredients

simple recipe:

optional add-ins:

  • 1 scoop collagen powder
  • 2 tablespoon coconut cream or full fat coconut milk
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar

Instructions

  • Stir the orange juice, coconut water and salt together in a glass and drink up! Alternatively, you can add them to a mason jar with a lid and shake to combine.
  • If you're adding the optional add-ins -- specifically the coconut cream/milk -- you'll want to add everything to a blender and blend for 10-15 seconds.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

*Calories are for 1 drink and are an estimation; calories are for the "simple recipe" only
Substitutions: 
  • Orange juice - can use vitamin C powder instead or omit altogether
  • Coconut water - Can use as the main ingredient instead of OJ or omit altogether 
  • If you DON'T use the orange juice, add 1 tablespoon or lemon or lime juice instead
*If you want the recipe to taste like a creamsicle, follow the "simple recipe" and add the coconut cream/milk 
*Most of all, this recipe is easy to customize to your liking! This is how I enjoy it, but you can definitely change the ingredient amounts based on your taste buds :)
*This recipe makes 1 cup; feel free to increase the amount to your liking or to modify the rations (i.e. use more/less OJ or coconut water) 
*Storage: store in a glass jar with a lid in the refrigerator for up to 5 days
