I love caramel! It is one of my favorite flavors to recreate using natural ingredients – and it’s so easy to do! And quite honestly… sometimes nothing sounds better than a creamy, chilled caramel smoothie for a cheeky breakfast!

Medjool dates have a very similar taste to caramel, and combined with a few other ingredients you’ve got a sweet & creamy caramel treat!

This smoothie is a super delicious, healthy treat that is filled with lots of nutrients & fibre and is balanced with plant-based protein and healthy essential fats. It’s also refined sugar-free, dairy-free, soy-free, vegan & Paleo.
