Dragonfruit Dream Smoothie (vegan + gluten free)
Ever since I did the Medical Medium’s 3-6-9 Liver Rescue Detox a few months ago I have been obsessed with dragonfruit. I love it for its mild berry-like flavor, its potent antioxidant content, its liver-supportive properties and honestly, most of all, its gorgeous color! To beat the heat over the weekend I made up this fruity smoothie and we loved the combo so much that I had to share. It’s a refreshing mix of sweet + tart, it’s packed with vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, and fiber and it’s anti-inflammatory to boot. Yes, please!
INGREDIENTS
1 packet frozen purple dragonfruit (you can also use fresh if available)
1/3 cup frozen mango
1/3 cup frozen strawberries
1/2 cup frozen wild blueberries
2 large kale or collard green leaves or a big handful of baby kale
1/2 inch chunk ginger
Squeeze of fresh lime
1/2 cup water
DIRECTIONS
Break apart the dragonfruit in the packet before emptying contents into your blender cup. Add the remaining ingredients and puree on high until smooth. Add more water to help it blend, if needed. Pour into your favorite cup and enjoy! Serves 2-4.
