Berry + Beet Smoothie
/It has been such a long time since I posted a smoothie recipe on my blog. I was at the grocery store in the produce aisle (of course) and the beets caught my eye which doesn’t typically happen because I don’t use beets too often in my recipes (although I should because they’re so good for your liver). I knew I needed to get them but wondered what in the world I would make with beets? I came up with an idea to make a berry beet smoothie- something bright, fresh, full of antioxidants, and so good for the liver. I grabbed some frozen berries while at the store and came home to create this beautiful, liver detoxing smoothie. I love it so much and I hope you do too! It seriously brightened my day and it’s one that I think even little kiddos will enjoy. Xo
Ingredients:
3 small beets, peeled
1 cup frozen raspberries
1 cup frozen strawberries
1 tsp honey
1/2 lemon, juice
1 cup coconut water
Directions:
Peel your beets either with a peeler or simply cut the outer layer, top, and bottom of the beet and set aside.
Pour the coconut water into the blender and squeeze half the lemon in there too.
Add in the beets, raspberries, strawberries, and honey. Blend on medium high until well until no chunks of beets or fruit remains.
Pour it into a glass and drink up!
With love,
Ashley
