14. Strawberry Centric: More of a one-fruit-only kinda gal? No worries, coconut goes amazingly with strawberries, bananas and basically any other fruit.
15. Mindfully Minted: Herbs can go really well with lots of different fruits, and mint leaves are no exception. Why not add in some mint for a refreshing way to refuel on a hot day.
16. Floral Addition: Warm weather means gorgeous florals are out to play, so why not add some blossoms to your bowl for a treat that will definitely make your friend’s mouths water.
17. Chia Chow: If you aren’t on the chia train, now is definitely the time to jump on! These tasty seeds have so many health benefits, and they also go perfectly with any juice or smoothie.
18. Beet the Heat: Veggies and fruit are a pair that definitely are supposed to mix. A mash-up of beet and berries goes great with the slightly bitter-ish bite of the coconut.
