Superpower Sour Smoothie

5 minServes 1

Blueberries, banana, lemon, maca, spirulina, and turmeric - this smoothie is a nutritional powerhouse with a bright, sour edge that wakes you up from the inside out. The lemon is the star: add the full half for a super-sour version, or just a squeeze for something more mellow.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup frozen blueberries
  • 1 frozen banana, broken in half
  • 3/4 cup water (plus more as needed)
  • 1/2 lemon, de-seeded and peel removed
  • 1 tbsp maca powder
  • 1/2 tsp each spirulina and turmeric
  • Pinch of black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1Put everything in the blender except the lemon.
  2. 2For a super-sour version, add the juice of the other half of the lemon and start with just 1/2 cup water, adding more as needed.
  3. 3Blend until smooth.
  4. 4Garnish with frozen blueberries and a pinch of turmeric.

Jennifer's tip

The pinch of black pepper isn't optional - it activates the turmeric's curcumin so your body can actually absorb it.
