HONEYED PEAR AND GINGER SMOOTHIE

The Honeyed Pear and Ginger Smoothie is a refreshing yet comforting drink that combines the natural sweetness of ripe pear with the subtle spice of fresh ginger. Almond milk provides a creamy, dairy-free base, while honey enhances the flavour with a touch of natural sweetness. Ginger not only adds warmth but also offers digestive and immune-boosting benefits, making this smoothie a perfect choice for a morning pick-me-up or a soothing, anti-inflammatory drink. This smoothie is light, hydrating and packed with fibre, making it ideal for gut health and overall wellness. Whether you’re looking for a nutritious breakfast, a post-workout refresher or a cold-weather remedy, this smoothie is a delicious and nourishing choice. Enjoy it as is, or garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a few crushed nuts for added texture and flavour.

TIPS

Here are some helpful tips for you when making this honeyed pear and ginger smoothie.

  • Use A Ripe Pear: A fully ripe pear blends more easily and provides natural sweetness.
  • Chill The Almond Milk: Using cold almond milk enhances the refreshing quality of the smoothie.
  • Grate Ginger Finely: This ensures even distribution and prevents overpowering chunks.
  • Sweeten To Taste: Adjust the honey based on preference or replace it with maple syrup for a different sweetness.
  • Enhance The Flavour: A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg complements the ginger and pear beautifully.
  • Make It Extra Thick: Reduce the almond milk for a spoonable smoothie bowl topped with granola.

VARIATIONS

  • Higher Protein: Blend in a scoop of vanilla or cinnamon protein powder for extra protein.
  • Nutty Twist: Add a teaspoon of almond butter or cashew butter for a richer taste.
  • Dairy-Free Option: Use coconut or oat milk for a different texture.
  • Extra Spice: Mix in a pinch of turmeric or cardamom for additional warmth.
  • Citrus Blend: Add a squeeze of lemon juice for a bright, zesty flavour.
  • Dessert-Style Treat: Garnish with coconut whipped cream and a drizzle of honey.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours in an airtight container. Stir before drinking.
  • Freezing: Pour into ice cube trays and freeze. Blend with fresh almond milk when ready to serve.
  • Meal Prep: Pre-portion pear and ginger into freezer bags for quick blending on busy mornings.
