I’m on a mission to build the Ultimate Home Smoothie Bar, and I need your help.
I got a Blendtec ICB7 Blender for Christmas (Thanks Nana!),
What are your favorite “must have” ingredients for yummy healthy smoothies?
And if you have a special source for them please list that as well.
Please comment below.
Thanks!

Oh man…. there’s tons of them, which I must admit I learned from Craig & Sue. Cacao gives you a buzz, helps you concentrate, etc… Coconut water / Coconut milk give a lot of nice flavor. Coconut flakes give a nice texture. Mango, Tito’s, apples, bananas, kittens, schnauzer snakes, and a little bit of cayenne pepper.
Here’s one video of craig making a smoothie– but do NOT put digestive enzymes into it!

Hey Matt, CJ’s favorite smoothie: banana, strawberries, blueberries, a little bit of orange juice and your favorite yogurt. Try to have one of these every morning.
I can help you… give me a couple days and i will make a comprehensive list ingredients and sources. I am super busy packing. To start one of favorites is super simple: banana, coconut meat or flakes, and spring water. I got hooked on that ‘lassie’ in thailand. add cocao for a kick
Here is what I do.
I just go with a little of everything.
Tsp. Spirulina powder
Tsp on chia powder
Tsp flax seeds (pinch)
Splash of Acai juice
1 banana
Cacao nibs (just a few)
Splash of mango juice
Goji extract just a little
Pour a little hemp milk on it (more than the other liquids)
Frozen fruit whatever kind you want.
Top off with a little water to help the blender and liquify things.
I have even added a little protein powder to the mix too
Blend and enjoy!
Oh forgot I add a little Cayenne pepper, cinnamon and nutmeg. Just a little of each.
