“Cardamom, a spice frequently used in Indian dishes, is actually related to ginger and has similar benefits for the digestive system,” says Mira Manek, London-based chef and author of the new cookbook Saffron Soul. “Add to that antioxidant-packed raspberries and mango and this naturally sweet treat is as delicious as it is good for you.”
Divide the raspberries between 2 glasses and crush a little using a spoon or fork. Place the glasses in the freezer and leave for 20 minutes to chill.
Place the mango, coconut milk, cardamom, honey, and ice cubes in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Taste and adjust the sweetness and flavor by adding more honey or cardamom.
Remove the glasses from the freezer, pour the smoothie over the raspberries, and serve.
