If you look up the definition of a smoothie in the
dictionary you’ll find multiple definitions including; a creamy beverage
blended with milk or a person who performs with deftness.
We’ve all ran into a smoothie in your life, whether
it’s the drink or a dude at the bar spewing cheesy lines.
While the smooth-talking smoothie is not always appetising,
the smoothie is one helluva drink – more so, when it is infused with our other favourite,
coffee.
The
thing with smoothies is that you can make them as healthy or as indulgent as
you wish. Add berries, oatmeal, nuts (or nut butter), seeds, etc. when you are
feeling especially virtuous or more indulgent ingredients like chocolate when
you feel like it.
Our
recipes give you the whole range depending on your mood. And we promise you
that they are all delicious.
Even if you hate breakfast, you will love this meal
in a glass. And, of course, the smoothies are perfect as an afternoon
pick-me-up or a pre or post-workout drink
But
first things first: our coffee is full of antioxidants, vitamins &
minerals: hence you are definitely ahead on that count.
Two,
our liquid, slow-extracted coffee is ideal for smoothies. You can never get the
desired effect with brewed coffee or even espresso shots cooled and used in
smoothies. Try us and taste the difference.
Healthy smoothies, naughty smoothies, dairy
smoothies, vegan smoothies…we have them all.
