A doctor told me once to give up coffee. Coffee is arguably a perfectly healthy drink, of course, but some people — like me — are more sensitive to caffeine than others. I didn’t listen to the doctor, of course, because coffee is amazing.

Still, maybe the doctor would approve of my caffeine habit if I turned it into this hippy-dippy health smoothie, courtesy of Well + Good NYC. With coconut, raw cacao and a frozen banana, it sounds lovely and refreshing as breakfast or dessert. Plus, all those antioxidants and good fat and vitamins or whatever! Really, it would be unhealthy NOT to drink my coffee with this in the blend.

Take that, medical professionals!
