Instructions

For each colored layer blend all the ingredients separately in a blender and place in a separate jar. Rinse the blender with water before moving on to the next color. Place all three colors 1 by 1 in a glass. Serve with extra pistachio nuts. 

Serve immediately or keep it the fridge for 1-2 days.

 


Notes

If you want to create visible separate layers you will need a thick smoothie consistency. A thick can be achieved by using frozen bananas and a thick plant-based yogurt, such as coconut yogurt.

If your smoothie is too thick, add more water or plant-based milk.
