Today's smoothie is all about this delicious and fragrant weed... MINT!

It's just so beautiful, isn't it!?

Makes 1 or 2 servings:

1.5 cups water
.5 cup organic unfiltered apple juice
slice lemon
1/2 cup or about 10 leaves of fresh basil
1/4 cup parsley (I used flat leaf italian because that is what we have growing right now... curly parsley is also very flavorful)
1/2 cup mint leaves - fresh from the garden!
1 green apple (skin removed because it was not organic)
1 cup green grapes
2 or 3 cups spinach
2 or 3 cups kale

1/4 cucumber (peeled)
1c flat leaf Italian parsley
1/4 or 1/2 tsp fresh grated ginger
2 or 3 celery stalks
1c kale
1-2c baby spinach
1 to 1.5c organic unfiltered apple juice

Today's Sexy Ingredient:  GINGER!
Ginger is an awesome anti inflammatory ingredient to anything - tea, soups, stews and smoothies!

  • It's said to help with menstrual cycle issues
  • Will help an upset stomach (Remember your mother pushing ginger ale on you whenever you stomach hurt?!)  Well, the fresh is best!
  • It's said to help with arthritis (as it's an anti inflammatory!!)
  • It's said to have aphrodisiac properties!
  • And most importantly, it helps your body absorb beneficial minerals and nutrients from other foods.  

..........All stuff to keep you feeling and looking sexy!!

1 c or 1 handful of parsley

Today's Sexy Ingredient: CELERY! Don't waste the celery leaves... Throw them in your smoothie! Unless of course you buy the prepared/washed/chopped type from grocery store.


Guess how you can benefit from just 1 celery stalk?!

  • Reduce inflammation
  • Calm you down and lower your cortisol (stress hormone) levels
  • Regulates your alkaline balance, and essentially reducing acidity within your body.
  • Aids in digestion with its insoluble fiber and so it keeps things moving!
  • Can boost your sex life! Yep, that's right... There are pheromones released when you chew celery.
