Probiotic Pineapple Tepache
This is a Mexican fermented pineapple drink that is fresh, full of probiotics, and slightly fizzy. I especially love this drink because it uses the pineapple skins and center that usually go to waste, and it always makes me happy to use every part of a fruit.
Normally, it is made with piloncillo, which is an unrefined, caramel-like sugar, but I did not have any on hand, so I just used white sugar resulting in a more clear liquid in contrast to the dark liquid you would normally see in traditional tepache. It was very delicious and makes a perfect drink to go with your next Mexican dinner night.
Cucumber Basil Coconut Cooler
This is my new favourite drink this Spring. It is refreshing, deeply hydrating, and the perfect cooler while you sit by the pool.
It’s a mocktail, but can easily be turned into a cocktail by adding a splash of rum or vodka if you’re feeling naughty.
Almond Milk
Stop buying almond milk from the store and make your own instead. Have you ever read the label on store-bought almond milk? The ingredient list likely contains way more than just water and almonds (hello emulsifiers, sweeteners, oils, binding agents, flavourants, etc.). So if you think you’re picking a healthy milk alternative, you are sadly mistaken.
Citrus, Carrot & Cucumber Juice
Boost your immune system with this delicious citrus, carrot, and cucumber juice. It is refreshing and hydrating.
