This delicious smoothie is chock-full of nutrition. We have a double dose of Sunwarrior goodness, from the Ormus Supergreens and vanilla Warrior Blend, to ensure optimal, clean, plant-based nutrition. Cranberries are a wonderful fruit, often underutilized in smoothie recipes. They offer high amounts of vitamin C, manganese, fiber, and phytonutrients that have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer properties particularly good for the immune system, cardiovascular system, and many parts of the digestive tract. The combination of cranberries, raspberries, and bananas in this recipe offers a tasty balance of tart and sweet. Lots of variation ideas are included at the bottom for added nutrition and different, delicious tastes.

Variations:
