Living Rawesome Day #156 Mint Cacao Cooler pg. 30 everyday raw
December 28, 2009
Mint is my favorite flavor right now, even over chocolate or carob! Chocolate mint always reminds me of the winter season. I couldn’t pass this recipe up considering the 3 coconuts in my refrigerator waiting to be used. I bought a case of them, hoping I would finally get to my coconut wraps that I have been wanting to make. I still have that dynamic recipe to do. I think it will be delicious but I am hesitant to make it because of the many steps.
Mint Cacao Cooler Ingredients
1/2 cup young coconut meat
1/4 cup agave
1/2 vanilla bean scraped
1/4 cup cacao powder
2 cups almond milk
10 fresh mint leaves
All ingredients were placed in a Vita-mix. It makes 2 smoothies or 4 small dessert size drinks.
It is going to freeze tonight, so I should go find my cat outside so she doesn’t freeze, maybe now she will understand that it is cold and it is time to come in. She dislikes the indoors so much. I think because she was a stray kitten. I like to believe that it is in her genes. She is the ruler of the neighborhood. The funny thing about it, is our neighbors have a band named Bad Kitty and they named their boat BAD KITTY, so it is on the side of the boat. Well, they are selling it now, so they have it out front and our cat has adopted it as it’s home. I love to see her peak over the side and the letters are screaming BAD KITTY right underneath her. Priceless. I still have to get a photo.

I just came across this old photo of my dad and David Wolfe. I was actually annoyed that my recipe photos were stored in the wrong file, and then I found this pic! I found out that DW was going to be at an opening of a juice cafe in San Diego, so I told my dad. My dad does so much for me, he showed up to the opening to get a photo. This might be the best picture of my dad that I own! You gotta love his dedication to me and making me smile! I love you DAD!
