Meet the Pink Smoothie—it’s got all the fruity, refreshing satisfaction, without any of the guilt.
Our Pink Smoothie combines JOI 100% almond or cashew plant base with the bright, sweet flavor of pitaya (often called dragonfruit), the sour punch of goji powder, and the subtle texture of chia seeds to create one seriously addictive smoothie you can feel good about making every day (or maybe twice a day).
Here’s what makes this smoothie a nutrient powerhouse:
Pitaya (or dragonfruit) provides essential vitamins and minerals like Vitamin C, Vitamin E, magnesium, and iron that can help fight chronic disease, plus it’s an outstanding source of dietary fiber and contains prebiotics that support gut health.
Goji Powder is derived from goji berries, which provide outstanding servings of Vitamin C and Vitamin A, as well as a surprisingly high amount of vegetable-based protein. Plus, their high fiber content helps promote satiety and maintain steady blood sugar.
Chia Seeds provide hefty doses of essential minerals like calcium, manganese, magnesium, and phosphorous in addition to several B vitamins. They’re also high in fiber, protein, and heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.
