TIPS FOR CUCUMBER MINT SMOOTHIE

VARIATIONS

  • Add a slice of ginger for a spicy kick and extra detox benefits.
  • Substitute coconut water with aloe vera juice or plain water for a different twist.
  • Include a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds for added fibre and omega-3 fatty acids.

PREPPING AND STORAGE
