Does this winter weather have you feeling down? If so, this smoothie will boost your immunity + energy. For immunity, it contains camu camu powder, which is a must for your smoothie bar. Why? This superfood contains more vitamin C than any other food on the planet (up to 60x more than an orange!) The camu camu berry comes from the camu camu shrub and is typically ground up to ingest due to its sour flavor. This is my go to when I’m not feeling so hot. Plus, it also contains manganese + copper. You also get an extra boost of vitamin c from the mangos + strawberries.
For energy, I opted to add spirulina to this concoction. This is another smoothie bar must have since it is a high source of protein (60%) for us vegetarians + vegans! Spirulina is a blue-green algae and is not only a rich source of protein but also contains iron, phytonutrients, Vitamins A, K1, K2 + B12.
And oh yeah – it was HEAVENLY to drink so why not give it a try? I’ve been perfecting smoothies for years so this will not disappoint 🙂
