Christmas smoothie? We know, it’s not exactly traditional. Let’s face it, we all say we’re gonna “be good” in the eating department over Christmas, but the reality is 99% of us will consume copious amounts of buttery shortbread, sugary sugar cookies, white dinner rolls and go way overboard on some kind of gravy (and not to mention drowning in eggnog).
Here’s a blend that will help cut all that rich food and give your belly a much needed balanced digestive boost.
The tartness of cranberries and lime are cleansing for the palate and stomach, and ginger keeps effective digestion humming along. A coconut milk base smoothes it all out.
