This Coconut Blueberry Smoothie recipe is the perfect blend of frozen blueberries, coconut and macadamia nut milk for a delicious, quick, protein packed breakfast smoothie.
Disclaimer – I received free samples of the Milkadamia™ milk mentioned in this post however, I was not compensated for my time and all opinions expressed are solely my own.
There are two mornings a week when we have what I call our “early” days. These are the days that my son has preschool. I try to set my alarm early to be dressed with breakfast ready before the kids get up, but that NEVER happens.
It’s more like – hit snooze multiple times, jump out of bed when I realize how late it is, scramble to get dressed, get both kids dressed, force breakfast down their throats, toss together some packed lunches and sprint out the door to make it to school on time.
These my smoothie mornings because I certainly don’t have the time to cook scrambled eggs or make oatmeal. These two days a week, my blender is my lifeline.
A new favorite of mine is this Coconut Blueberry Smoothie. Just 4 ingredients and less than 1 minute stand between you and this deliciously creamy filling breakfast.

I used to make it with coconut water, but I recently received samples of macadamia nut milk from a company called milkadamia and fell in love! It’s a plant based milk alternative company, so it’s great for people who can’t have dairy , are gluten free or follow a vegan lifestyle. It’s also made from raw macadamia nuts, making it a good source of protein, healthy fats and omega-3’s and 6’s. Their product is so creamy and has such a great flavor that I like it even more than milk. The Latte Da flavor is hands down my favorite. So rich and makes coffee taste amazing.
I use 1 cup of Latte Da flavored macadamia milk in this smoothie, along with a cup of frozen blueberries, vanilla protein powder and 2 chunks of frozen coconut (I find it in the freezer section of trader joe’s). It gives me enough protein and healthy fats to keep me full well until lunch time.
It also makes a great post-workout recovery smoothie!
