It’s time to unleash the elixirs! This is the first in what will be many elixir recipes.
If you don’t always feel like a smoothie during the cold winter months, you may gravitate towards elixirs like I have. These warm, frothy beverages deliver just as much nutrition as a smoothie, but feel more appropriate when it’s cold out.
Slight nuances differentiate an elixir from a smoothie. Elixirs are often thought of as medicinal drinks because they’re typically made with a curative tea. You’ll want to choose a tea for your elixirs based on a particular health concern you’d like to address.
Kombucha has become my fermented beverage of choice lately. I make my own because it’s easy and affordable.
I admit it, I’m addicted! Addicted to superfood smoothies. I like to think of it as a healthy addiction :)
This smoothie is dedicated to an old colleague and friend, Todd, aka T-Mac.
If you dig the peppery, spicy flavor of arugula then you’re going to love this smoothie. If you’re not a fan of arugula then I suggest finding another healthy smoothie to kick-start your day with.
