Cucumber-Cranberry “Super-Diuretic” Live Green Smoothie
Posted by: Angela Leeds In: *LGS Daily Recipe|*Live Green Smoothie RECIPES
I picked up a beautiful pint of organic cranberries, famously diuretic, high in disease-fighting antioxidant phenols, and certainly fresh and seasonal as we approach the Thanksgiving holiday. Paired here with another diuretic, fresh cucumber, and with mangoes, another fruit rich in antioxidant phenols, and here’s yet another youthifying, healthifying, extremely refreshing smoothie for your LGS arsenal.
Make the smoothie with unpeeled organic cucumbers and you’ve got the added detoxing benefit of chlorophyll and turning this raw smoothie into a Live Green Smoothie!
This is mildly sweet and mildly tart, an excellent sports drink to take with you to the gym. You could even enjoy this in the evening instead of a glass of wine — it’s “dry” and won’t fill your body up with sugar so late in the day.
