The weekender is a bit of indulgence without the indulging.
One balanced smoothie with probiotics, water, veg, and fruit, with the right amount of sweetness.
Cardamon, it’s slightly spicy, herbal and citrusy character balances perfectly with berries and the earthy texture of beetroot and kale. It’s a bit of a faff to make, so knock it up at the weekend.
