Green Drink

 These green drinks are bitter, strong, and awesome for my liver! Lol, but true.

3 leaves kale, 3 stalks asparagus, stalk of celery, big bunch of cilantro stems and leaves, cucumber, thin carrot, ginger, 1/2 lime, 1/2 an orange, some water, and 2 ice cubes.

Coconut Pineapple Smoothie

Just a few simple ingredients...

One whole freshly cut pineapple, 1/2-1 cup Unsweetened Coconut Milk, & ice if desired.

Oh yeah, super good!

Pineapples have a powerful enzyme bromelain. Bromelain helps with inflammation, swelling, & treating sore muscles. Bodybuilders know how important it is to get bromelain into their bodies to recover. For me it's awesome to juice or eat fresh pineapples when I have sore calves and muscles from ballet. Fresh pineapples also helps build strong bones and helps with indigestion and acid reflux. Can't go wrong when choosing a wholefood like pineapple, just go easy on it and don't eat too much at one time. Good facts here.

Especially, with fresh cut up strawberries!

Coconut Pineapple Stawberry Popsicles

From our smoothie leftovers we put the rest into the Popsicle holders and into the freezer.

 So so so good!

冰棒 Bing Bang

 My kids love to make "冰棒" Popsicles from our smoothies!

 Cherries, pineapple chunks, blackberries, strawberries, coconut ice cream, and water. These Popsicles are especially good to make for teething babies. They love it on their swollen gums.

Orange Spinach Smoothie

First, juice the oranges...

Then put handful of carrots, a little bit of cabbage, spinach, 1/2 an orange with peel off, banana, and ice. The more ice you add it'll turn into a sorbet.

I had one of these at a Vita-mix demo at Costco, expcet theirs came out nice, lovely, and orange. I prefer more greens...

The beat part for my kids is that we get to freeze the leftovers in Popsicle holders!

Watermelon Smoothie

My husband made this yummy watermelon smoothie or more like watermelon slushie! He scraped out half of a cold watermelon, put it in the blender with ice, and then served. I buy a lot of watermelon, but the trick is finding the ripest, sweetest, juiciest, and tastiest one! My dad always picked the best watermelon and that's because growing up he would go pick watermelons in the garden. He says all you gotta do is give them a good flick and see which one sounds the most hollow. Over the years I've been able to get some pretty tasty watermelons by following his advice!
