Summer time is my favorite season by far.
Temperatures soar, along with hem-lines, and suddenly
everyone is walking around the city with a big grin emblazoned across their
face and a sudden spring in their step.
While one of my favorite summer activities is to consume
large amounts of Summery Ciders, Rekorderlig’s Limited Edition Passion Fruit
for Summer 2013 please, whilst swinging my legs off of The Embankment, it’s
important to keep your levels of nutrition high in this sweltering heat (Nutrition yes, but I’m really in it for the promise of glowing skin &
hair.)
Enter The Slurp-me-up Smoothies.
Now don’t
be put off by the overtly green hue that fills your bottle, because as they say
“It may be green, but it’ll keep you
lean!” And that’s just what this smoothie promises to do! Not only does it fill
you up with the best in antioxidants and every Vitamin from A to Z, it keeps
you energized throughout the day- perfect for the season that promises lots of fun
in the sun.
To make enough for one bottle you’ll need:
1 Kiwi, Peeled and chopped.
1 Pear
3 handfuls of spinach leaves
Half a Cucumber, Sliced [leave the skin on, that’s
where all the goodness lies!]
1 small piece of ginger, peeled.
1 Celery stick
40ml Bio-Active Aloe Vera Juice (now available at some of
your nearest supermarkets!)
Brace yourself ladies & gentlemen, the directions for
this recipe are extremely complex and are not for the feint hearted so brace
yourself...
Chuck all of the above into a blender or juicer, hit the
start button and watch the ingredients wiz around until your left with a fluorescent
green liquid. It really is that simple!
Pour it into your favourite bottle, add a little straw for
cocktail fever delight and Hey Presto! Your Slurp-me-up Smoothie is
ready for drinking while bounding around London in the Sunshine!
