Birch Water and Blood Orange Shake

This shake doesn’t only boost your immune system with lots of vitamin C, it also helps cleanse, hydrate, and detoxify your body.

In this recipe you will find both an alcoholic and non-alcoholic version of this fruity variation of the famous Brazilian drink.

Piña Colada Smoothie

In this smoothie I combined fresh pineapple with coconut water and shredded unsweetened coconut to create a fresh summer flavor. We drink smoothies almost every morning because it is a delicious opportunity to add your daily amount of vitamins, proteins, and omega 3 to your diet. Did you know, only 150 g (~ 1 cup) of fresh pineapple will provide over 100% of your recommended daily Vitamin C intake?
