With 20 minerals, 12 vitamins, 18 amino acids and 200 active plant compounds & phytonutrients, Aloe Vera is a fabulous addition to your smoothies. Did you know that drinking aloe vera juice accelerates recovery after exercise? It's also a wonderful digestive aid.
To make this smoothie an extraordinary skin beautifier, I pair Aloe Vera juice with enzyme-rich Pineapple, anti-inflammatory Ginger and Turmeric and iron-rich Spinach, then add a light, refreshing summer mint touch.
Ingredients
1 cup spinach
¼ cup fresh mint
1 cup pineapple, frozen
2 tablespoons aloe vera juice, or a 2-inch fillet straight from the plant
½ inch fresh ginger, peeled and minced
¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
1 lime, peeled
¾ cup coconut water
2 teaspoons honey (if you like it sweet)
How To:
Blend and glow :-)
