Spirulina Pomegranate Raspberry Smoothie combines three powerful anti-oxidants along with vitamins and minerals for a healthy drink.
Sweet, a little tart and packed full of everything you need to stay healthy. From anti-oxidants to protect your cells from damage, to iron for those struggling with anemia and vitamins to keep you energized.
This Spirulina Pomegranate Raspberry Smoothie is basically youth in a drinkable form. When I start my day with a healthy smoothie, I feel a noticeable increase in energy right away. I like to rotate between this Spirulina based smoothie and my Tropical Tumeric Ginger Smoothie, each having an incredible amount of health benefits.
Using frozen fruit allows for a great texture without having to add ice, which turns slushy or frozen yogurt, which is full of not so great ingredients. If you really want a minimalist smoothie, omit the agave nectar and taste just the natural fruit sugars. It really depends on your taste and when the fruit was harvested, in the peak season or off season, which can make a huge difference in the natural sweetness.
