Move over green smoothie, make way for the new kid on the block. ♥️
There’s a new color in the world of smoothies and it is my favorite one!
What are your thoughts on a Blue Smoothie? Yay or nay? I am personally a huge fan of blue so it is definitely a yay for me.The color comes from blue spirulina, a nutrient dense aqua botanical that is rich in protein, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Besides the high nutritional content, it is known to boost the immune system and increases energy too. Powerful algae I have to say!
There’s a whole lot of goodness in just 1 serving of this people!
This blue smoothie recipe starts with frozen fruits. I love making smoothies using frozen fruits as the smoothies get really thick and yummy, just like an ice cream! Furthermore, frozen fruits can easily be stored in the freezer for a long time, so you can blend up some smoothies whenever you need one.
Actually, I think I need one right NOW
