BERRY GARCIA SMOOTHIE

August 1st, 2012

In honor of what would have been Jerry Garcia's 70th birthday today, we invite you to make this Grateful Dead-inspired smoothie!

The Chilean maqui berry may be new to you, but it ranks at the top of the berry league with super high antioxidants, up there with acai and gojis. Hemp Seeds boost the protein and Omega’s with a subtle nutty flavor.

The trick to the groovy effect is in the layering and the swirling of the two blends. Combine all ingredients but the maqui & blueberries in a blender. Pour half the contents of the blender into cups. Blend the rest of the berries and then top your cups with new mix, swirl with a stir stick for a trippy, tie dye effect!
