There’s not a single season you can’t enjoy your favorite smoothie in! Smoothies are amazing for all the seasons. They can be packed with fruits and vegetables, and are also nutritious for on-the-go times. There is an art to craft a well-rounded, flavorful smoothie to nail the right texture and taste, all of this may take time, but here’s how you can make your glass of perfect moringa smoothie!
HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT MORINGA SMOOTHIE
Let’s first start with the equipment. First, You need a blender to make a smoothie. You can typically break down the craft of making a perfect glass of smoothie into 4 parts: fruit, greens, liquid, and nutrient-dense powder. The result is a satisfying and nutritious smoothie by selecting one or more items from each category.
PART ONE: FRUIT
Fruit is what gives the smoothie its sweetness, while also adding vital vitamins to your smoothie. I always include bananas as a staple in my smoothies. It’s light in flavor, high in potassium, and helps thicken the smoothie.
For even thicker smoothies, consider freezing the banana before adding it into your smoothie, or you can add ice for a thicker consistency. Other fruits that you can include are blueberries, peaches, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, cherries, acai, and pitaya (pink dragon fruit).
PART TWO: GREENS
There are many great greens to choose from that will add extra nutrients, and help balance out the sweetness of the smoothie. The following are greens I’ve found work best: kale, spinach, collard greens, and chard. This time we are adding spinach leaves to our sweet glass.
PART THREE: LIQUID
Nowadays, there are so many milk alternatives to choose from. But being an old school fan, I love to keep it all simple, so I mostly go along with dairy milk, it’s my taste and healthy. Other liquids to use can be coconut milk, powdered milk, fresh juice, and even water.
PART FOUR: NUTRIENT DENSE POWDER
This step is where your smoothies can pack a punch. My go-to powder is Moringa powder by Bharat moringa. It’s nutrient-dense, and also supports sustainable moringa farming. Moringa has 2 times the amount of protein as yogurt, 4 times the vitamin A of carrots, and 4 times more calcium than milk.
