Smoothies are extremely popular these
days.
And for good reason...
... They're easy to make...
... They have some wonderful health benefits...
... There's an endless number of varieties...
... And -- with the right recipes -- they taste great
too.
But here's the thing...
For some people, smoothies are just blah... so even though they're aware of the benefits of smoothies, they just don't drink them.
And, even for those who enjoy smoothies and drink them regularly... they can start to experience some appetite fatigue... where their interest in them
declines.
Well... no matter what your current regard for smoothies might be, here's a great way to improve them:
Add some essential oils!
Just adding a drop or two of one or more essential oils can totally transform a smoothie.
Personally, I love adding fruity essential oils --
like orange, tangerine or lime.
And I find ginger essential oil not only adds a unique flavor, but it can make a smoothie more soothing too.
A little peppermint can really give a smoothie a fresh and lively taste.
And essential oils like cinnamon bark or nutmeg can give a warm and cozy sensation.
The sky's really the limit... there are lots of options.
And essential oils can be used with just about any existing smoothie recipe.
You just want to be sure you only add a small amount.
Here's one of my favorite recipes:
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- 1
scoop protein powder (I use hemp powder)
- a couple teaspoons of ground golden flax seed
- 1-2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1-2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 8 ounces (or more) of almond milk
- and 1-2 drops of orange or ginger essential oil
- (sometimes I might add chia seeds or nut butter as well)
This is just one of many recipes you can try.
If you don't like the looks of
this one, find another and experiment by adding some essential oils.
For your best health,
