Vanilla Bean Coconut Yogurt Smoothie

• 1/2 cup water
• 1/2 cup honey

• Coconut water, frozen in ice cube tray (approximately 1/2 tray)

1. Combine the water, honey and vanilla bean pod in a small saucepan over low heat.
2. Simmer for 7 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the vanilla to infuse into the honey.
3. Remove the vanilla pod and allow the mixture to cool completely, about 10 to 15 minutes.
4. In a blender, combine some of the vanilla honey with the yogurt, mint and 1/2 tray of frozen coconut water cubes, or more for desired consistency.
5. Puree until smooth, then pour into glasses and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint.
6. Serve immediately.
