Upping Your Smoothie Game
If you follow along with our Instagram account, you know that beverages are my jam! When the temperatures are chilly, I pretty much have a mug of something warm and cozy attached to my hand. And of course, during the summer I am all about the smoothies and fresh juices. We love using coconut milk for an extra creamy dairy-free smoothie as well as sneaking in some extra greens with spinach. Some of our other favorite ways to up our smoothie game are by adding MCT oil and collagen. They’re all simple ways to add a little extra nutrition to your smoothies!
Chocolate + Cherry = Magical
I don’t know about you, but sometimes I just feel like I NEED a little chocolate in my life! And I love that I can use a superfood creamer, like Laird Superfood, to not only satisfy my chocolate cravings but also get some serious antioxidants, too! Laird uses only raw, cold-pressed cacao in their superfood creamer, and according to their website raw cacao has over 2000% more antioxidants blueberries and 516% more than açaà berries! Wowzas! Plus, this flavor combo is pretty much pure magic!
