Modern life dictates new nutrition rules. People no longer want to eat just to satisfy hunger—they want to get maximum pleasure and benefits for their health from food. At the same time, the time spent preparing meals should be minimal. This is exactly where smoothies come in—a true trend in healthy eating.
Smoothies are fruit cocktails made from various types of berries, fruit pulp, and sometimes even vegetables, with the addition of ice, milk, or juice. Their popularity is easy to explain: they are almost calorie-free (if you don’t add dairy products), rich in vitamins, potassium, and fiber, great for curbing appetite, and, most importantly—they are incredibly delicious!
Smoothies are relevant not only in summer but also in winter. They are easy to prepare using frozen berries and fruits, which are always available on supermarket shelves.
Here are some tips for making the perfect smoothie:
- Combine flavors
Mix sour berries with sweet fruits, and vice versa. This will enrich the taste of your drink. - Use ice:
To make the cocktail thinner, add crushed ice. However, try to avoid large ice chunks to prevent damaging the blender. - Choose the right liquid:
If you want to add liquid, use sugar-free juice or milk. We recommend soy milk—it reduces calories and is a source of calcium, protein, and fiber. - Experiment:
Smoothies with green vegetables and herbs are very healthy. Feel free to add muesli, nuts, or cinnamon—it’s all up to your imagination!
