RASPBERRY, POMEGRANATE & GINGER SMOOTHIE
Equipment
- 1 Blender
Ingredients
- 1 fresh pomegranate
- 1/3 cup raspberries (I used frozen)
- 1/2 banana (I used frozen)
- 1/4 cup plain unsweetened yoghurt
- Peeled 1 inch knob of ginger
- 1 tbsp chia seeds or other favourite seeds
- 1 tbsp pomegranate molasses or honey, or pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp blackcurrant powder or maca powder or other favourite supplement
- About 1 cup almond milk or rice milk, or filtered water
Instructions
- Extract the arils from the pomegranate (I use the good old whacking method) and add the arils and juice to your blender.
- Add the frozen raspberries, banana, yoghurt, ginger, chia seeds, pomegranate molasses and blackcurrant powder. Top up with almond milk and blitz in a high-powered blender (you’ll need to blend for longer than normal to pulverize those arils).
- Taste test and adjust for sweetening if necessary. If it needs thickening, add a bit more banana; if it needs thinning, add more almond milk. Serve immediately.
