Immune Boosting Raspberry Beet Smoothie

 

Cooler temps and back to school mean the start of cold + flu season is upon us. And the easiest, most delicious way to fight off all the nasties is with a colorful, nutrient-rich smoothie.

This particular one features a mega dose of antioxidants with raspberries, beets, and camu powder — a superfood berry from Peru that contains 60% more vitamin C than an orange.

  • 1/3 cup chopped, raw red beet
  • 1/3 cup frozen organic raspberries
  • 1/2 frozen banana
  • 2 Tbs. Navitas Organics hemp hearts
  • 1 tsp. Navitas Organics camu powder
  • 6 ounces cashew or coconut milk
  • Toppings: bee pollen, raspberries, shredded coconut
Instructions:
  1. Place smoothie ingredients in high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. Thin with additional milk one tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.
  3. Pour into glass or bowl and top with bee pollen raspberries, and shredded coconut.
