Perfect Purple Detox Smoothie
I haven’t tried this detox smoothie with the exact ingredients yet. The smoothie detoxing ingredients are extensive and may be hard to find, so feel free to substitute where you need to. The original recipe writer write, “the cayenne powder gives it a spicy punch that intensifies the rest of the flavors, such as sweet-tart raspberries, antioxidant-rich wild blueberries, tangy apple cider vinegar, smooth almond milk, sweet acai juice, nutty flax seed meal and the coconut water ice cubes.”
With a healthy description like that you know its got to be worth trying. Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods stores will have the ingredients, but I put links to some of them on Amazon if you need to buy from there.
Ingredients:
- 12 ounces Acai Juice
- 6 ounces almond or soy milk (I prefer almond milk)
- 1 Tbsp soy creamer
- 1 cup frozen wild blueberries
- 1 banana (frozen)
- 1/2 cup frozen raspberries
- 1 Tbsp Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal
(blueberry if you can find it, try Trader Joe’s)
- 1 cup ice cubes (coconut water ice cubes pref’d)
- 1 Tbsp Macro Greens
powder
- 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1-3 dashes cayenne powder
Serves 2 healthy people in need of detox.

Healthy Green Coconut Smoothie
I have been experimenting more with coconut oil and I think I like it. So you may see a few more coconut oil smoothies in the future. It isn’t a staple for most kitchens, but maybe it should be. Coconut oil, said to be “healthiest oil on earth” is extremely good for for you (read more here) and adds a unique taste you will enjoy. Try and and let me know how you like it. Here is a brand I recommend: Barlean’s Organic Oils Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
Ingredients:
- 2 bananas, frozen
- 2 HUGE handfuls spinach (you won’t even taste it)
- 1 cup milk (almond or soy is even better than moo juice)
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Add all ingredients into a blender. Blend until mixed. Serve in tall glasses and enjoy.

Banana Raspberry Yogurt Smoothie Recipe
I don’t care for raspberries and putting them in a smoothie isn’t something I usually do. Mixing them with other fruits certainly helps and once blended their velvet texture, which I don’t care for either, isn’t an issue, but I still don’t try to fit them in my smoothie mixes. But my wife and kids like them so I keep a few bags in case they ask for them. I’m also sure that many of the readers like them too, so here is another raspberry smoothie for everyone else. ;-)
I love soymilk and almond milk so feel free to use either for this recipe. I also leave it to you to choose sweetened and/or vanilla flavoring. I personally would choose unsweetened vanilla almond milk, but your tastes may be different.
Ingredients:
- 1 container (6 oz) 99% Fat Free French vanilla yogurt
- 1 1/2 cups soymilk or almond milk
- 1 cup unsweetened frozen or fresh raspberries
- 1 medium banana
- add a few ice cubes if you don’t use frozen raspberries
You know the drill…
Place ingredients in blender or food processor. Cover; blend on high speed about 30 seconds or until smooth. Serves 2.
Blue Soymilk Smoothie
I have recently become addicted to Silk Soymilk and its creamy vanilla flavor. I read on the outside of the Silk Soymilk box a very simple smoothie recipe. I changed it a little after trying their recipe and added some more fruit. It is delicious so I wanted to share it with you in case you didn’t believe the simplicity of recipe could actually be so tasty.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup Silk Vanilla Soymilk
- 1 cup frozen blueberries (they must be frozen)
- 1/2 strawberries (fresh or frozen)
And that’s it. No sweeteners needed, it is wonderfully creamy and delicious. My wife asked for seconds. I blended it in my Bullet Blender (Magic Bullet Express 17-Piece High-Speed Blender Mixing System
