The Detox Weekend

As I am typing this post, my cup of healthy goodness is by my side. My skin had a lot of break outs the last couple of weeks and since my trip to London is next Saturday and the holidays are right around the corner, I was in desperate need of a detox. I have been sipping on green juice, green tea and water all weekend to hopefully save my skin from more break outs and give it a beautiful, healthy glow. I made a lot of juice, so I have been drinking for about three liters of that green yumminess. Let’s hope my skin likes it too!

Here is the recipe for anyone who could also use a bit of a pick-me-up before the holidays!

- One banana

- One pear

- Half a cucumber

- 1 ½ green apple

- Large piece of ginger

- Juice of one lemon

- A handful of spinach

- One tablespoon of hemp seeds

- One tablespoon of flax seeds

- Pinch of cayenne pepper

- Water to make the smoothie thinner. I used about three glasses.

Just mix everything together in a blender and there you have it: your own healthy, green juice that looks a bit scary but tastes amazing!
