Pomegranate Avocado Detox Smoothie
During late fall last year after spending 6 weeks in the Palm Springs area, we went to see my cousin Michelle and her beau Ryan in Del Mar. From San Diego, we drove up to Dana Point to spend some time with our friends Karen and Peter. After that, the vacation was almost over and we started driving back home.
Our first two stops were both in California; Monterey and Crescent City and then we drove to our last stop in Newport, Oregon before heading home the next day. When we finally got home, the temperature had dropped from 35ºC/95ºF down to 10ºC/50ºF within 4 days. It’s not as bad as when you’re flying back from a tropical destination to Canada in the middle of winter but still, it sure was a shock to our system.
A few days later, David got sick with a cold, coughing badly. It was just a matter of time before it was my turn. That is when I remembered a smoothie that I used to drink when I was feeling under the weather. The next morning, with a sore throat, I made us my Pomegranate Avocado Detox Smoothie!
This smoothie is not just super tasty but also very good for us. With great antioxidant ingredients, this Pomegranate Avocado Detox Smoothie is a good way to ward off a cold. It boosts our immune system and gives us nutrients that our body needs.
After drinking it, David started feeling better – to my relief – while my sore throat vanished and I was able to get on with my crazy schedule without getting sick. I’m not saying that this is the “remedy” but it sure doesn’t hurt to give your system a little boost now and then.
