This smoothie is like a good wine waiting to be discovered. Much like a French wine, it has that dark red color, pure aroma and a strong taste, leaving your taste buds with a very distinct and pleasant aftertaste that simply makes you want more. Enjoy!
Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 200-250 g frozen blueberries
- 2 tbsp frozen cranberries
- 1 big avocado (skinned and seeded)
- 2 carrots (sliced)
- 1 red beet (chopped big)
- 1 golden apple (chopped big)
- 2 tbsp coconut butter
- 1 tsp raw cacao powder
- 1 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
- 1 tsp ginger powder
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 slice lemon (cut in 4, organic)
- 500 ml water
Instructions
- Add all fruits and veggies into the blender.
- Add liquid (in my case water) and blend on medium to high speed until everything looks smooth and creamy.
- Pour into glasses and enjoy! You could also store it in the fridge for 2 days and serve later.
Notes
If you’re not using an organic lemon, make sure to remove the skin. Did you know that conventionally grown citrus fruits (lemons, limes, grapefruits, oranges, mandarins) are often sprayed with chemicals that accumulate in their skin, making it toxic for human consumption?
- Color: deep dark cherry red
- Texture: just right, perfect smoothie texture
- Taste: spicy and sweet with a light cinnamon taste (for the connaisseur)
