Maca Protein Whip Smoothie

Maca Protein Whip Smoothie Recipe

A nourishing favourite from our little bird kitchen menu, the Maca Protein Whip Smoothie is a long-time staple — and for good reason. It’s creamy, energising, and packed with nutrient-dense wholefoods that support your body and mind.

This smoothie features a powerful combination of Seleno Health’s ethically sourced, activated maca and Little Bird Organics raw cacao — two superfoods we love not only for their flavour but for their function.

Maca is a revered adaptogen from the Peruvian Andes, traditionally used to support energy, mood, and hormonal balance. We use Seleno Health’s activated maca because it’s sustainably grown, farm-direct, and scientifically backed for maximum absorption and effect.

Our raw cacao is sun-dried and never heated above 46°C during processing, helping to preserve its natural antioxidant levels, magnesium, and mood-boosting compounds.

Blended with avocado, hemp seeds, coconut yoghurt, and naturally sweet dates, this smoothie is creamy, satisfying, and full of healthy fats, plant-based protein, and fibre — making it the perfect way to start your day, recharge post-workout, or power through a busy afternoon.
