Green Smoothies that don't taste green!
Greeña Colada
My favourite cocktail was always a Piña Colada and I used to convince myself that the pineapple meant the cocktail counted as one of my five-a-day!
With this green version, you don’t need to pretend – you can have that delicious, summery coconut flavour, without feeling any guilt, or the sore head the next morning!
Top tip: Pineapples are rich in bromelain, which can aid digestion and reduce inflammation. Melatonin in pineapples also promotes good sleep, which is a perfect excuse to have a greeña colada for dessert!
