Swamp Cocktail

Cheers!

This morning I made a "Swamp Cocktail." Despite it's unattractive, brownish coloring, it really is quite tasty! 

To make simply add a handful of strawberries (about 7-8, stems cut off), the acai unsweetened smoothie pack, a handful of your favorite leafy greens (I use a power green blend of red and green swiss chard, spinach and arugula), a spoonful of hemp seeds, and enough water to cover the strawberries into the blender. Mix it until smooth and then toss a few ice cubes into the mix and blend again. (This makes enough for two glasses.)

I love this smoothie because it nice and simple yet still provides lots of nutrients and vitamins. You can also easily modify the sweetness to your fancy by adding more or less strawberries and greens.

Benefit highlights: omega 3, 6, 9s in the acai; potassium, vitamin a, c, k in the greens; omegas, iron, protein in the hemp seed.
