My Favourite Winter Green Smoothie
When the weather cools down, it can be tempting to reach for heavier meals and comfort foods. While there's certainly a place for those, I also love starting my day with a fresh, nourishing smoothie packed with colourful ingredients.
This Green Sunshine Smoothie has become one of my winter favourites. It's quick to make, full of vibrant flavours and an easy way to include more fruit and greens in my day. Fresh ginger adds a gentle warming kick, making it perfect for cooler mornings.
I also like adding two of my favourite Aglow products to this smoothie:
Aglow Super Greens is made with a blend of freeze-dried organic greens and plant ingredients, making it an easy addition to your daily routine.
Aglow Marine Collagen contains premium hydrolysed Type I marine collagen peptides with added Vitamin C, Vitamin E and CoQ10. Its unflavoured formula mixes easily into smoothies without changing the taste.
