Gather all ingredients: ground cinnamon, whole nutmeg, vanilla extract, 1 pitted frozen date, optional protein powder, light coconut milk, carrots, 1 frozen banana, frozen pineapple, and ice cubes.

2

Grate the whole nutmeg if using fresh for better flavor.

3

Place the carrots, frozen banana, frozen pineapple, protein powder, date, and vanilla extract into a high-speed blender.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and a couple of ice cubes to the blender.

5

Pour in about 1 cup of light coconut milk, adjusting the amount based on desired consistency.

6

Blend the mixture in the high-speed blender for about 1 minute until the carrots are liquefied.
