Goji Berry Recipes for Healthy Fruit & Vegetable Smoothies
Hi! Nili Nathan with Expert Village. This next smoothie is using goji berries and strawberries. Goji berries is something that I just discovered. It’s from the Himalayas and it’s a berry, and they say that it’s the most vibrant and nutritious berry in the world. It originated Tibet and it’s considered to be one of the world’s most nutrient rich fruit. For centuries the goji berry has been honored among the Tibetans for it’s strength building and properties associated with longevity. It’s a sacred secret of the east. Harvested with care by monks for nearly 5 thousand years, the sacred fruit has been legendary in Tibet and Chinese medicine. The berry is rich as an anti aging agents, rich in anti oxidants, vitamins and minerals, and facilitates the flow of vitality, so let’s try it. What I’ve done here is I’ve soaked it for about 4 hours so it blends easier. I’m going to drain it. Wow, interesting. I have my strawberries, which are already washed. I’m just going to remove the green part. This is just a nice hand full of strawberries. I’m pouring about a cup and a half and the goji berries right in there. There we go. And about a tablespoon…I can usually measure it just by sight…a tablespoon of the agave nectar, which is a natural sweetener. There we are. You can add some ice cubes if you like your smoothie with a little more frozenness to it. Here is the nectar from Tibet. We have to put it in a special glass because this is the sacred smoothie. I feel like going out and doing yoga now. This is great.
