A Juice & Smoothie Mash Up
By Claire Georgiou, Reboot Naturopath, B.HSc ND
It’s not quite a juice or a smoothie it’s both, so let’s call it a Juioothie! This is inspired from one of my indecisive moments when I couldn’t decide whether I wanted a juice or a smoothie. I felt like a green juice but I also felt like coconut water and blueberries in a smoothie so voila, this juice/smoothie (juioothie) was born! It has the benefits of the concentrated nutrients from the green juice plus the whole berries and the electrolyte rich coconut water! Enjoy!
