Basil Cherry Smoothie

Basil Cherry Smoothie

Sometimes we need a change from kale and spinach and a great alternative is to actually reach for herbs.

Basil is a good choice for smoothies because of its natural sweetness but its peppery nature gives a punchy flavor.

Did you know basil helps to reduce bloating and gas? Plus, basil has anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. That is so awesome.

Today’s recipe is bursting with fresh, herbaceous flavor balanced with the sweetness of coconut water and cherries, which is cut through by the tart berries.

Our orange-flavored collagen peptide powder throws in a lovely citrus dimension in this fresh, juicy beverage and gives it an amazing beauty boost.

 

Recipe:

  • ½ cup of frozen mixed berries
  • ½ cup of frozen cherries
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 4-5 leaves of basil
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 1 tablespoon of chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon of flax seed
  • 1 scoop of Sparkle Skin Boost with Verisol
  • 1½ cups of coconut water

 

Put everything in a high-speed blender and blend till smooth.
