There’s no sweeter, more tropical, or visually striking way to start your morning than with a homemade, fruit and veggie-filled twist on the viral coconut cloud smoothie. The best part? You don't necessarily need to live in Greater Los Angeles or spend $20 (with tip) per smoothie to pull it off.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks 

• 1 frozen banana 

• 1 packet of blues 

• 1 tbsp almond butter 

• 1 cup almond milk 

• ¼ cup cold coconut cream

Directions:

• Blend all ingredients except coconut cream together. 

• With a whisk, whip up the cold coconut cream until frothy. 

• Spread some whipped coconut cream on the inside of your glass to form small clouds. 

• Pour your smoothie in your glass, and top with the remaining coconut cream.

It's that easy. Now go forth and start your day off on a wonderful note, without breaking the bank.
