    • 1 head organic romaine
    • Juice of ½ organic lemon or one lime
    • 3 to 4 sticks organic celery
    • 1 organic apple
    • 1 organic pear
    • Parsley, optional
    • Pinch cayenne pepper, optional
    • 1 shot wheatgrass, optional

Blend water, spinach and romaine. Add celery, apple, pear, lemon juice and herbs.

Mother’s Day isn’t complete without a proper toast to mom. This innovative spritzer combines a mom favorite — Earl Gray tea — with bubbles. Pair with it TLC.

  2. Spoon 2 teaspoons of syrup into each of 6 glasses. Top with prosecco and toast mom in style.

Guilt-Free Hot Chocolate

by Leave a Comment

When it’s cold outside and you want to warm up your insides, all you need is a guilt-free hot chocolate.

    • 1/2 cup raw cashew nuts, soaked in water for 20 minutes
    • 2 cups water (1 cup room temperature, 1 cup boiling)
    • 4 dates, pitted
    • 1 tablespoon raw cacao powder

Warm Spice Smoothie

by Leave a Comment

When it’s cold outside and you want to warm up your insides, a frozen smoothie just won’t do the trick. You can still have all the components of a healthy shake but the warmth and nourishment of comfort food by creating “hot” smoothies. Use the recipe below as a base and switch up spices, drop in some berries or add protein powders to suit your palate. All you’ll need now is a frosty winter day.

    • 1 ripe banana
    • ¼-inch knob fresh ginger
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    • 3/4 cup hot almond milk

Warm the banana in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds, while heating the milk on the stove. Blend all the ingredients in a blender for 2 minutes and you’re done. Drink it while it’s hot!

    • ½ packet of frozen Sambazon Acai Berry + Guarana Smoothie Pack
    • ¼ cup Vegan Protein Factors powder in Vanilla Bean flavor
