Turmeric is the spice that gives curry powder its golden color, but it’s also a great addition to smoothies. The coconut milk enhances turmeric’s anti-inflammatory properties.
11⁄2 cups unsweetened plain or vanilla coconut milk beverage
1 tbsp maple syrup
2 frozen medium bananas
2 tsp ground turmeric
1 In a blender, combine coconut milk, maple syrup, bananas, turmeric, and black pepper to taste. Blend on high speed until smooth.
2 Pour the mixture into two chilled glasses, sprinkle a pinch of freshly ground black pepper on top, and serve immediately.
