Okay okay. So the name of this smoothie actually depends on who you ask. If you ask Elsie, Barbie Smoothie. If you ask me when Elsie’s not around, Beet Smoothie. But in my defense I was trying to make it seem more appealing to a 2 year old, which I didn’t even need to do. This smoothie is absurdly beautiful AND delicious. It is sweet, tart, refreshing, and packed full of nutrition. The beets in particular are full of anti-inflammatory properties and are also the reason behind the bright fuchsia color (Barbie pink). When something you eat looks this good, you know you’re also going to look good drinking it. The original recipe is from ohsheglows.com but I made a few minor adjustments to it below.
