Old Fashioned Strawberry Shake


Once again, this is based on my Quick Raw Vanilla Shake.


Ingredients
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup ice (plus more if you'd like)
1 cup water
3 tablespoons raw agave nectar
½ avocado


Preparation
Blend all in Vitamix until smooth. (You may wish to use a little less salt, and a little less agave if you don’t want it as sweet.)


To this base, add 1/2 cup fresh strawberries. Pulse in blender for desired texture. Check sweetness.
