Super Smoothie Recipes
Ultimate Super Smoothie Pre-Mix
For when you are in a hurry just add 1-2 tablespoons to your favourite milk replacement (oat, hemp, rice or almond milk) and mix quickly before drinking slowly to savour the dreamy deliciousness.
Ultimate Super Smoothie Set
Step 1 – Add a teaspoon (or lots more if you have been doing this for a while) of each superfood to your blender.
Step 2 – Add your favourite liquid. This combination works well with hemp, almond, rice or oat milk.
Step 3 – Add fruit to taste eg blueberries, banana, strawberries
Blend and enjoy!
Optional boosters:
Optional boosters can be used to increase the creaminess eg almond butter, coconut butter etc or increase fibre eg linseeds, chia seeds.
You can adjust the taste of the smoothie according to your needs:
- More chocolatey –add more raw cacao
- Fruitier – add more goji berries
- Want more energy and a maltier taste – add more maca
- Want more protein – add more hemp
- Want more sweetness – add more bee pollen
Have fun playing with the ingredients and work out the combination that works best for you. Of course you can also make smoothies with one ingredient only. Personally I never follow recipes, I just love experimenting with superfoods and various fruits and vegetables. I normally just throw together what I have available in the kitchen and adjust the taste to my liking by adding additional ingredients if required.
