The Coconut Cup Juice Bar & Cafe

I have quite a few "favorite eateries" on Kauai.

My first go-to spot to put healthy food into my body - The Coconut Cup Juice Bar & Cafe.

I love their smoothies. I instantly feel healthier once I take a sip.

Located conveniently off the main highway in Kapaa, I never feel like it's out of my way to go eat there. Actually, I mainly just drink there… smoothies.

Ivy's pretty picky about smoothies, but she likes these ones. 

She's drinking the Wainiha Acai:

-Papaya (my favorite fruit since I was a kid)

-Organic Acai

-Mixed Berries

-Organic Vanilla Soy Milk

-no bananas, cause I'm allergic, so I asked for mango instead

There's something about Acai… so yummy! This year's trendy superfood, for sure.

I also like their Lumahai Cooler:

-Pineapple

-Mango

-Papaya

-Ginger

-Guava Juice

Watch out for that ginger - it's got some bite! 

Aside from smoothies and juices, they also have:

-Breakfast Burritos

-Acai Bowls

-Gourmet Sandwiches

-Bagels

-Wraps

-Organic Salads

-Shave Ice

-Caffeine

On another note, since we've been back on Kauai, I've had time to add some new head bands to my Etsy Shop. Have you seen them yet? Here's a peek:

Kitchen Sink Green Smoothie

I drink smoothies year-round. It's a perk of living in Hawaii. I wrote a really yummy, well-calculated post about a Raspberry Oatmeal Smoothie that has be pinned hundreds of times on Pinterest. Well, this smoothie recipe is a little different… it's my Kitchen Sink Smoothie. Basically, if we've got it, it's going in the blender. Except for bananas, I'm allergic.

Here's what we normally have, that I use in this smoothie:

-Almond Milk

-Some kind of juice

-Ice

-Peanut Butter

-Honey (mine comes from the Big Island)

-Frozen Raspberries and Pineapple

-Ivy's leftover Strawberries and apple pieces that she doesn't finish

-Stevia (don't overuse!)

-Frozen Basil from my friend's garden (Thanks Bethany!)

-Green Super Food powder in Orange Dreamsicle flavor

-And a couple chocolate chips… for my own sanity

No measurements, just eyeball 'em. What do you put in your smoothies? Do you calculate it carefully, or just toss it all in? 

Happy Saturday! Aloha, Rebecca
