Cucumbers are just so great for hydrating, and so great for your skin, and connective tissue, and, well, every aspect of staying fresh & looking young (hah… there’s a commercial in there, somewhere!), and they pair wonderfully with mango here to make a Live Green Smoothie that is only mildly sweet.

Add fresh lime juice and you’ve got a super-refresher alkalizing drink with rejuvenating Vitamin C. And if you want it sweeter… just add a banana! (Or go the raw-honey-or-cane-sugar route…)

But for Weight Watchers aficionados who have become readers of my site… sans the banana and you’ll have a nice low-point drink, here. And it’s filling!

I did indeed take mine to the gym with me. And as there was still a bit leftover from the two bottles when I returned, I blended the rest up with from powdered super-greens and super-herbs, and a bit of powdered cordyceps and other medicinal mushrooms, for a serious energy & immune system booster.

Twas wonderful.

:D
