Purple Energy Summer Smoothie

This smoothie combines the flavours of the Amazon with summer and maca magic! Acai is considered one of the world's most potent superfruits. Here we mixed it with tart delicious kiwifruit and pineapple for a fresh summer delight.

Did you know it's actually good for you to eat the skin of certain fruits?

The kiwifruit skin is completely edible and makes this nutrient-dense fruit even more nutritious! A recent study shows that eating the skin triples the fibre intake compared to merely eating the flesh. And by not peeling the skin, you preserve much of the vitamin C content as well.

Ingredients:

• 1 whole kiwifruit
• small handful of frozen strawberries
• 1 packet frozen acai pulp
• 1 tsp maca powder
• 1 cup coconut water

Blend ingredients together and enjoy this tropical refreshing infusion!

Makes one large serving
