fruity drinks

i've been trying to cut down the amount of caffeine i consume... even though i don't drink coffee in the afternoons, i'm sure the copious amounts i drink in the mornings and all the cups of tea are contirbuting to my insomnia.

i've been trying out a few new recipes the past week, and here are three of my favourites

cherry and banana smoothie

blend together a large handful of cherries {stoned} and a banana, with a half a cup of apple juice

pineapple mint juice
 

























blend one pineapple with three or four mint leaves, serve over plenty of crushed ice


minty apple iced tea






















brew three peppermint tea bags in two cups of boiling water, leave for 10 minutes. leave to cool, then mix with 500ml apple juice. serve over ice and garnish with some apple slices.


banana, apple and yogurt smoothie
 























blend one banana, one apple {cored and diced} a spoonful of plain yogurt and a splash of apple juice.

  2. I always start and end my day with a smoothie. Try this one: almond milk (homemade if possible) strawberries, banana, hemp seed and almond butter. That's my favorite!
