Strawberry & Blueberry Smoothie
Sometimes theres nothing nicer than a refreshing smoothie to start the day. Lately one of my favourites is this strawberry & blueberry smoothie, it’s just packed full of goodness. It’s perfect when craving for something sweet and really hits the spot. In this smoothie I’ve added Baobab powder which is a raw and naturally dry powder that comes from the fruit of the African ‘Tree of Life’. Its natural Vitamin C promotes alertness, energy, supports the immune system and increases iron uptake in the body. It has an alkalising effect on the body which is aways a good thing. I use the one from Organic Burst as I love their products.
Strawberry & Blueberry Smoothie
Ingredients (serves 2)
6 large Frozen Strawberries
70g Frozen Blueberries
250 ml Almond milk (or more depending how thick you want your smoothie)
2 tsp Chia Seeds
2 tsp Baobab powder – I use the one from Organic Burst
5 Ice cubes
You can also add 1 banana if you like it extra sweet.
Mix all the ingredients into a blender and blend for 1 minute. Voila your delicious smoothie is ready to serve 🙂 I’ve created this fun video of me making this strawberry smoothie – I hope you like it, It’s my first ever video for my blog and I hope to do many more. I promise they will get better. Let me know what you think 🙂
Have a lovely day!
