Cilantro Surprise Smoothie

Okay, okay, you are reading this and thinking, “Cilantro Smoothie”? Well, me too.  But what is life without trying new things and that means trying new smoothies. You will see some familiar ingredients such as strawberries and papaya but also some not-so-familiar ingredients such as almond milk (see below) which can be difficult to find.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1 cup coconut water
  • 1 cup papaya
  • 1 cup cilantro
  • 8 large strawberries
  • 4 dates

HOW DO I MAKE ALMOND MILK?
You can make almond milk by soaking 1 cup of almonds for a few hours. When finished
soaking, strain them and blend them with 3 cups of filtered water. Strain the resulting mixture through a nut milk bag. You can add sweetener or vanilla for additional flavor. To store, place in the refrigerator in an air-tight container. You can also buy almond milk in a health food store, but it will not be raw.

Put everything until smooth. Dr. Yoshiaki Omura discovered that mercury levels in the urine increased after an individual ate Vietnamese soup, which contains cilantro. Dr. Omura’s further research discovered that the herb cilantro could accelerate the excretion of mercury, lead, and aluminum from the body.

College Dorm Smoothie

Most of us don’t really have a package of frozen strawberries or a container of plain yogurt (not to mention flaxseed) lying around, but we crave smoothies too!  So this is for you, ESPECIALLY if you’re a college student and you can swipe all these items from your dining hall.

Ingredients:

  • 4 ice cubes
  • All-fruit Popsicle (I used Edy’s strawberry Fresh Fruit bar)
  • 1/2 cup of orange juice
  • 1/2 cup of milk
  • 6 oz flavored yogurt (I used Yoplait light banana creme pie)
  • 1/2 banana
  • 1/3 packet of instant oatmeal (I used Quaker Low Sugar Strawberries and Cream)

and just blend it all up!

Submitted by a college student, obviously.

Strawberry Smoothie with Dates

Filed Under Strawberry Smoothies · Comment 

A strawberry smoothie with a surprise of sweetness, dates! The almonds add a nice unexpected flavor as well, but I will never underestimate the humble date again. What do you think about this slightly unusual strawberry smoothie?

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup strawberries
  • ¼ cup almonds, soaked
  • 3 dates, pitted and soaked
  • 1 cup water

Soak the almonds and the dates separately (for at least several hours), then rinse. Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.

A smoothie with a kick from Captain Morgan. Nice. Mojito drinks have become more popular over the recent years so it was on a matter of time before the Mojito smoothie was created. Thanks for this smoothie recipe submission.

Ingredients:

  • 2.5 oz White Rum (Preferably Captain Morgan’s)
  • 2 oz lime juice
  • 5 oz 7 up
  • 2 tablespoons raw sugar (or white)
  • 2 branches of fresh mint with leaves
  • 4-5 ice cubes

Process all of the ingredients in a blender, except for the mint. Pour into two tall glasses. Crush a branch on mint in each glass several times with a spoon. Serves 2
