If there’s anything else you can’t find, ask us.)<\/em><\/p>\n \u2022 1 cup cashew or other milk You can add other therapeutic elements to this if you wish, such as:<\/p>\n \u2022 5-10 drops mineral drops (I like CMD brand<\/a>) Put all except the blackcurrants into your blender and blend till everything is combined and the honey has blended in. Add your blackcurrants and blitz till well combined and frothy.

Blend together \u00be cup water with \u00bc cup cashews till well blended, then add the other ingredients.<\/p>\n Many people love blueberries in their smoothies, but I prefer blackcurrants. They are higher in ORAC (antioxidant) value, have a more complex flavour and go wonderfully with chocolate. What more could you ask for? I\u2019ve made this version with homemade cashew milk, as many people have issues with dairy (especially pasteurised dairy), but you could use milk, yoghurt, coconut milk or any other kind of nut milk. You can buy your nut milk, or there […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[14,13,29,6,36,7,10,38],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1262"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1262"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1262\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2481,"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1262\/revisions\/2481"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1262"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1262"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.frot.co.nz\/design\/recipes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1262"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
