Vitamin C Boost Lychee Strawberry Smoothie
It’s smoothie week! I’m just getting over a winter cold and I’m determined to get myself feeling 100% again. Vitamin C is a big help in preventing sickness in the first place and flushing it out when you do happen to catch a bug. There are a ton of fruits that are packed with Vitamin C, which makes it easy to get your daily dose. For breakfast I made a triple berry smoothie and for lunch, a more exotic treat, combining the sweet taste of lychee with orange juice and strawberries. It was super tasty, and is now one of my favorite smoothies! Do you have a recipe I should try?
Lychee Strawberry Smoothie
Serves 2
10 lychees (mine are from a can, drained and washed)
3/4 cup of frozen strawberries
1 sliced banana
3/4 cup of orange juice
3-4 ice cubes
- Wash and prepare fruit for blending
- Place all ingredients in blender
- Blend on medium-high for 1-2 minutes
- Enjoy!
