Erewhon Smoothie Dupes: 3 Clean Copycats of Popular Recipes

Meet the viral wellness trend that’s lighting up social media: Erewhon smoothies. These vibrant, nutrient-packed drinks hail from the LA-based grocery chain Erewhon. And thanks to their celebrity and influencer buzz, they’ve become a symbol of luxury in the wellness world.

But with $20 price tags and limited locations, they’re not the most practical or accessible option for most people. That’s why we created clean copycat versions of three popular Erewhon smoothies.

Each recipe is made with nutrient-dense, cleanse-friendly ingredients you can whip up right in your kitchen. So you can enjoy the same luxe taste and feel-good benefits whenever you like from home.

Coconut Cloud Smoothie Recipe

First is our Clean take on one of Erewhon’s most iconic blends: the coconut cloud smoothie. This drink’s vibrant hue comes from blue spirulina, a blue-green algae packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds.

Our copycat version uses cleanse-approved ingredients and a trio of healthy fats for sustained energy. Avocado and almond butter add a creamy texture, while whipped coconut cream gives this smoothie its signature cloud effect. Pineapple adds a touch of natural sweetness along with digestive health benefits. A scoop of our Vanilla Daily Shake ties it all together for a nourishing smoothie that looks just as good as it tastes.

Ingredients

Makes 1 serving

1 cup pineapple
¾ cup unsweetened plain almond milk
¼ canned coconut cream (refrigerated overnight)
1 tbsp almond butter
¼ large avocado (or ½ medium)
1 scoop Clean Daily Shake Vanilla
1 tsp blue spirulina (plus more)

Directions

scooping coconut cream from can into glass bowl 1. First, prepare the coconut cream. Place a can of coconut cream in the fridge overnight to help the cream separate from the liquid. Carefully scoop out the cream from the top and place it in a bowl.

3. Add the pineapple, almond milk, almond butter, 1 tbsp coconut cream, blue spirulina, avocado, and Daily Shake to a high-speed blender. Blend for a minute until smooth and creamy.

Use a small spatula to smear the cream onto the sides of the glass in whatever pattern you wish. This will form the “clouds” once you pour in the smoothie.

6. Carefully pour your smoothie into the middle of the glass and watch the clouds appear.

7. Top with one more tbsp of coconut cream and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Recipe tips

Watch for spills: Blue spirulina is messy and can stain fabric and clothing. To prevent a mess, you may want to scoop it over the sink.
Be choosy with coconut cream: Some brands of coconut cream, like Trader Joe’s, have a grainy texture and don’t whip well. If you can, choose Whole Foods 365 or Native Forest brands. Both whip beautifully.

Turmeric Crush Smoothie Recipe

Next, this golden blend is inspired by Erewhon’s turmeric crush smoothie, with a few Clean upgrades. The original includes a medley of juices, like orange, carrot, and beet. While juices are nutritious, they lack fiber and can contribute to blood sugar spikes. In our copycat version, we’ve skipped the OJ and included a whole carrot instead, for a gentler, fiber-rich option.

Mango, pineapple, and carrot give this smoothie natural sweetness, while lemon and ginger brighten the flavor and support digestion. A scoop of our Daily Shake boosts the protein and nutrient content, while turmeric brings the anti-inflammatory benefits. We finish it off with a splash of beet juice for that signature swirl, without the sugar rush.
