Best Low Carb Strawberry Coconut Smoothie
While this smoothie appears a little on the short side, this is basically a fat bomb in smoothie form! Fatty coconut milk (the kind that separates in a can) thickens up this beverage to near-milkshake status. To achieve the best cooling effect, use frozen strawberries instead of fresh ones, and place the Keto plant-based milk and cream in the freezer for 30 minutes before preparation. That ensures that the final product is cooling and hydrating.
What are some variations to this recipe?
This recipe is so versatile that you can create many flavors out of it. You can some lemon zest to wake your taste buds. As for the fruits, you can replace the strawberries with raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries. If you can consume dairy, then you can replace the coconut cream with heavy cream, or cream cheese for a strawberry cheesecake-style smoothie.
Can you add more ingredients to this Keto smoothie?
Of course, you can add whatever fits your preference. If you want a more nutritious meal first thing in the morning, you can add spinach, chia seeds, or any other ingredient that has a subtle flavor. You can also add vanilla-flavored protein powder for a protein-filled smoothie. Just make sure you adjust the macros accordingly.
When can you drink this Keto beverage?
This strawberry coconut smoothie recipe is the perfect breakfast option for warm days to keep you hydrated for a long time. It is also a great pre/post-workout meal, providing you with sustainable energy and electrolytes. You can also add some protein powder and a pinch of salt to assist in muscle recovery.

Tasted pretty bland originally for my tastebuds and the taste of the coconut cream itself is off putting. Added 1 cup of almond milk, 2tbsp of stevia, ice cubes and a tsp of vanilla and it was much better.

Made this with Vanilla almond milk, coconut cream and frozen strawberries, and added a little vanilla and monkfruit sugar, and it tasted like strawberry Nesquik!

It’s okay. I used frozen strawberries. Maybe it would be sweeter with raw strawberries. And use ice cubes

Can I use heavy cream with coconut oil instead of coconut cream?

You may be better off using a hand immersion blender if you use coconut oil. You will likely lose some of the thick smoothie texture, but you can add ice cubes to thicken it.

Is tasty once you get past the smell, drink from in a bottle, coconut cream has a very off putting smell
