Cold fighting power house

Christmas Eve! Fighting a cold. So far it is just a drippy nose and sneezing. No cough, no sore throat. I would like to keep it that way and get better quickly. So today's smoothie is a cold fighting power house. 

1 banana
1 cup coconut water (electrolytes for hydration)
handful frozon pineapple (Vit C, Bromalin- natural mucus fighter)
handful frozon strawberries ( Vit C)
Juice of fresh orange (Vit C)
2 T raw organic honey( boost immunity, and energy)
1 T bee pollen
Handful fresh spinach (anti inflamatory, antioxidants)
1 cube Fresh Ginger (anti inflamatory)(I blend fresh ginger with water and freeze in ice cube trays, keeps it fresh!)
There is more benefits to the ingredients that I used, but that is just some of the basics.  It would be nice to rest as well, but it is Christmas Eve and people are coming over tonight!  PRESENTS!!!!!

I will also blend up a ginger, lemon, honey drink to sip on. 

1 cube of ginger
zest of 1 lemon
juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup raw honey
2 cups warm water


Merry Christmas!
