Video Blog: Replenish Smoothie Recipe

Hey guys it’s Tommy here from Raw Blend. It’s been a while in between videos sorry. I actually recorded a whole bunch of videos for you about three months ago but my memory card crashed and then I broke my hand so I haven’t been able to film anything for a while so it’s great to be back!

Today I’m gonna make for you a really simple smoothie recipe perfect for this hot weather in the one and only Vitamix Blender.

Replenish Smoothie

Ingredients 

  • 1 1/2 punnets strawberry (stems optional, I removed to improve the colour)

  • 1 small lime wedge with peel
  • 2 medjool dates (pitted)
  • 1 sprig thyme
