A superfood smoothie that also supports your endocannabinoid system is hard to argue with.

Here are 6 of the best CBD smoothie recipes, plus tips on getting the most out of them.
Evopure CBD — perfect for smoothies and shakes
Why add CBD to smoothies?
CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system to support homeostasis and general wellbeing. Adding it to smoothies alongside other beneficial ingredients gives you an easy, tasty daily dose — and pairs it with healthy fats (avocado, yoghurt, coconut, nuts) that naturally improve CBD absorption by increasing bioavailability. It’s also the ideal format for anyone who dislikes CBD’s earthy flavour neat.

6 CBD smoothie recipes
1. Savoury tropical CBD smoothie
Unique because it’s savoury rather than sweet — ideal as a morning nutritional boost. Ginger and turmeric add antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds.
Blend together: 2 drops unflavoured broad-spectrum CBD oil, 1 orange (peeled), 1 carrot (peeled and sliced), ⅔ cup coconut water, ½ cup mango chunks, 1 tbsp hemp seeds, ½ tsp grated ginger, 1.5 tsp turmeric, pinch of salt and cayenne, ½ cup ice cubes.
2. Green superfood CBD smoothie
High in fibre, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and protein — low in fat. An ideal post-workout recovery drink or morning shake. The avocado fat improves CBD bioavailability.

Lassi provides healthy fats and slow-release energy — an excellent carrier for CBD. Mix CBD with the fat-based ingredients first for maximum absorption.

Frequently asked questions
Can I put CBD oil directly into any smoothie?
Yes — add drops during the final blitz or after blending. Unflavoured broad-spectrum or isolate works best to avoid changing the taste.
How much CBD should I add to a smoothie?
Use your usual daily serving. The UK FSA advises healthy adults not to exceed 70 mg/day from supplements.
Do healthy fats improve CBD absorption?
Yes — pairing CBD with fats like avocado, yoghurt, nuts or coconut improves bioavailability by helping CBD cross the intestinal barrier more effectively.
Can I blend CBD with hot ingredients?
Let hot ingredients cool before adding CBD. Excessive heat degrades cannabinoids and terpenes, reducing effectiveness.
Which CBD type is best for smoothies?
Unflavoured broad-spectrum (no THC) is the most popular choice. Isolate is completely flavour-neutral; full-spectrum may add a mild earthy note.
