Two days from now I'll be en route to Hong Kong. It's a quick trip to one of the world's great cities, and I'm excited to have quite an adventure planned. We'll be in Hong Kong, before driving to see Near & Far at the printer. It's a part of the bookmaking process I don't know as much about, and I'm excited to better understand some of the related minutiae. I'm not sure what sort of internet connection I'll have outside the city, but I'll try to post a few pics to my Instagram account while I'm there, and publish a couple more comprehensive posts when I get back (favorite places, visiting the printer, etc). In the meantime, please enjoy this cherry smoothie. You've caught me in the middle of a cherry bender, and in this case I've tripled-down on all things red - cold-brewed hibiscus water (easy to make), blood oranges, and plump, sweet cherries. I've caught terrible colds on the last couple of long flights I've been on, so I'm hoping that if bolster my vitamin C intake with the cherries, orange and hibiscus. xo -h
Combine all the ingredients in an upright blender and process until uniform. If the smoothie is too thick, carefully incorporate more hibiscus water, slowly, through the feed hole on the lid with the motor running. Pour into glasses and enjoy.
*I cold brew hibiscus water quite a lot. Place 1/4 cup dried hibiscus leaves (also called jamaica) in a container with 4 - 6 cups of cold water. Let steep until the water is sufficiently hibiscus flavored 2 - 6 hours depending on your preference. Sweeten if you like, and enjoy - or use as a vibrant, tart component in other recipes.
HS: Hi Ann - My understanding (and I'm hoping to get a better grasp on this) is there are good number of factors that go into deciding where a book is printed - the technical spec, price point, color vs. b/w, type of paper, release date, number of books printed, etc. So, for example, if you want 50,000 copies of a book, full-color, on un-coated paper made either tree-free or from paper made from a sustainable source, at a certain trim size, you might have a different set of printer options versus 10,000 copies, b/w, with color inserts, etc, etc, etc. Also, clearly, there is a lot of price competition in the book market.

There was a time when I was scared of writing a book. It was like this unattainable, barely imaginable, intangible thing way out there in space. Like 100 galaxies away. Very abstract, I know. But seriously, I had this frozen fear that I was too small to write a book, not good enough to write a book, not serious enough to write a book. What a ridiculous notion! I mean, seriously. This is a totally obtainable goal. And now I have a book about smoothies, that include recipes like this Chocolate Cookie Butter Smoothie.
Now, I know I teased you all over on my instagram a couple weeks ago, declaring my love for the ultimate smoothie ever made. You all yelled at me to share the recipe and I said no no no no no no. But now I say yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.

Before receiving this book, V and I had invested in a Vitamix (we narrowed on this one and love it) and had been drinking a green smoothie everyday. We had the WholeFood book that came with the Vitamix, and I had been trying the recipes in that book alternating with a glowing green smoothie recipe that V had given me. While the WholeFood smoothie book has a great variety of smoothie recipes, all of them are not green or vegan or necessarily good if weight loss is your prime concern.
The recipes in Green Smoothies by Fern Green are all raw and full of vitamins and minerals. After each recipe the author highlights the benefits of the smoothie. I really liked the notes on the benefits, so when I drank a particular smoothie I knew whether it was immunizing, skin enhancing, detoxifying, blood nourishing, fat flushing or muscle and bone building. There are a total of 66 recipes in the book.
Impressed with all that the author had to say and the nutrients each smoothie of the 7-day detox would bring to my diet, I decided to give the detox try and tried 14 different recipes in the book over a span of a week. Some were less palatable, but not too bad that I had to struggle with them. Most of them tasted nice. And I liked the fact that I knew what each juice or smoothie was doing to my body.
If your goal is to include more smoothies in your life, or to strive for cleaner eating, or to include more nutrients in your diet I would highly recommend this book. The book releases on December 29th, 2015 and you can order it through Amazon by following this link.
I am sharing one of my favorite recipes from the book and the detox. The Beetroot Beauty. This was my breakfast on Day 6, and has half the recommended daily intake of vitamin C, while being fat flushing, detoxifying and skin cleansing.
Beetroot Beauty Print Prep time 10 mins Total time 10 mins A fat flushing, detoxifying and skin cleansing juice. Author: adapted from the book Green Smoothies Recipe type: Juice, raw, vegan Serves: 1 Ingredients
- 1 pomegranate 2 beets a bunch of red grapes a squeeze of lemon
- Cut and deseed the pomegranate and juice it. Juice the rest of the ingredients except the lemon. Squeeze in the lemon and stir. our juice is ready.
- If you do not have a juicer, blend all the ingredients except the lemon juice in a blender. Once blended strain the mixture into a glass using either a very fine tea stainer or using nut milk bags. Add the juice to the strained juice. And drink
Day 1 and 2 I was constipated, which is weird because I hardly ever have poop issues. I thought the smoothies with all their fibre would make me go, but there was no such luck. I am not sure why that was the case with me. I did try to research on it but found nothing substantial.
I was fine both these days. While I never had that hungry, not full feeling till Day 5, and felt satisfied with what I was drinking, Day 6 and 7 were different. By the evening I would feel hungry and felt the smoothies were not filling me up. Day 6 I slept early to avoid hunger pangs. And today is Day 7 and I had planned to do the same, but am finishing this post.

I'm looking for a recipe book to get me started on making fruit and vegetable smoothies. Preferably one with recipes that are quick and inexpensive. I'm hoping to lose weight, but learning to get used to the taste of vegetable would be enough.

Thank you for visiting Peanut Butter Fingers! I hope you enjoy little glimpses into my life and have fun trying the sweaty workouts I frequently share and making some of my favorite recipes along the way!
I recently discovered goats milk greek yogurt for adding to smoothies, sometimes I try to stay away from bananas and the yogurt helps create that thick consistency. Recently made one with papaya, ginger and mint and it was delicious!
The Nutribullet is a breakthrough device that enables you to extract all of the nutrients available from natural products. Unlike commonly available smoothie makers and juicers, the Nutribullet has been engineered to enable you to exploit nutrients from the skin and seeds of fruit and veg which often is where the major source of natural goodness is stored.
Don't worry if you don't have all of the ingredients for the recipes. You can substitute or miss out on some. The main point is you are boosting your body with all the goodness nature has to offer. Take a step towards a longer, healthier and happier life. A life with more energy, more time and less weight. Your new radiance and confidence awaits you.
Thank you Nathan, I own a Blendtec Blender, i bought just to start blending in green and your report has saved me so many headaches. let alone the money i saved not buying unnecessary books.
kudos to you and Blendtec !
I just made our favorite green smoothie. My blender took forever to get it smooth. I am thinking it may be time to get a newer stronger blender like a Blendtec! I am going to have to check some of them out!
One of the main benefits of smoothies is that they offer you a tasty, easy way to squeeze in key vitamins and nutrients. So be sure to keep your health requirements and preferences in mind when picking out the right book for you.
