This simple mocha smoothie recipe is a great way to get a much needed caffeine hit alongside a bunch of other nutrients that are actually good for you. It's a cool and refreshing alternative that's perfect for a summer morning or throwing into the gym bag. Avocado adds Vitamin K, C, B5, B6 and E, not to mention potassium, protein and folate. The yoghurt is a perfect way to get in a serving of dairy, and the coconut water counters the diuretic effect of caffeine.
