When the fine weather arrives I like to add more refreshing, nutritional and delicious smoothies to my diet. If you have been following me for a long time, you will have come across the recipes of some of my regular smoothies (like the green one<\/span><\/a>), but none of my pink ones.<\/p>\n

I find mixed berries, the \u201cculprits\u201d of turning the smoothie pink, fascinating on account of their great antioxidant properties and their flavour. As a result I often use them for my breakfast recipes and as a very appetising ingredient in my smoothies.<\/p>\n

A while ago on Instagram I shared the recipe for one of my pink smoothies that we have at home. My partner called it \u201cBatido Mis dos M<\/em>\u201d<\/span><\/a> because our daughters Manuela and Maria love it so much. Not long ago I also shared another of my star pink smoothies on Instagram Stories too. Some of you asked me for the recipe so I decided to put together the recipes for my favourite pink smoothies<\/strong> in this post so that you can consult them whenever you need to. Enjoy!<\/p>\n

PINK SMOOTHIE WITH GOAT MILK KEFIR<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Mis<\/p>\n

I N G R E D I E N T S
\nFor 1 person<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

– A handful of frozen berries (blueberries, redcurrants, raspberries and blackberries).<\/strong> As well as creating an intense pink colour, they are a source of antioxidants and vitamin C. Freezing them means I always have them available, and what\u2019s more, when frozen they add a creaminess to the smoothie.<\/p>\n

– 1 ripe banana.<\/strong> Banana is a source of potassium and magnesium and one of the main ingredients in my smoothies, because it adds density and a sweet flavour that means you can leave out other sweeteners.<\/p>\n

– 100-150ml goat milk kefir.<\/strong> Goat milk kefir has a strong and sharp flavour but I love it. What\u2019s more, it\u2019s very nutritional and digestive. It protects your intestinal flora, which is so important for maintaining a strong immune system. The quantity to use in the smoothie depends on how liquid you want it. As an alternative, you can use natural yoghurt.<\/p>\n

– 1 spoonful of cocoa nibs.<\/strong> If you like dark chocolate, you have to try this superfood. The raw cocoa seed is a source of magnesium and a great antioxidant, as well as providing a lot of energy and adding a crunchy consistency to the smoothie which I just love-<\/p>\n

– A handful of raw almonds.<\/strong> One of my favourite nuts, small but bursting with nutrition. Almonds are a source of vitamins, protein, calcium and omega 3 fatty acids which contribute to improving the cardiovascular system, among many other benefits.<\/p>\n

\u201cMIS DOS M\u201d SMOOTHIE<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Mis<\/p>\n

I N G R E D I E N T S
\nFor 1 person<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

– 6 frozen strawberries (or fresh when in season)<\/strong><\/p>\n

– 1 natural yogurt.<\/strong>\u00a0Yoghurt is a cultured dairy product which helps the body to balance the gut microbiota. A source of protein, A, B and D vitamins, and calcium. I eat full-fat yoghurts, but the low-fat ones have a more liquid consistency and make the smoothie lighter if you prefer it.<\/p>\n

– 1 spoonful of extra virgin coconut oil.<\/strong> Coconut oil is a good fat with high nutritional properties, and it helps to reduce cholesterol levels. If you want to know more about it, take a look at my video \u201cHablemos de las grasas<\/em>\u201d (let\u2019s talk about fats).<\/p>\n

– 1 soup spoonful of cocoa nibs.<\/strong><\/p>\n
