Let spices become a part of your smoothie routine as they bring out the best in a fruit’s flavor and add little excitement to your morning. These are the most popular spices for upgrading your smoothies at home. If your favorite smoothie spice didn’t make our list, or you have a smoothie recipe to share, tell us in our ‘submit your recipe’ section.
1. Organic Ceylon Cinnamon
The sweet, warm, and comforting taste of our organic Ceylon cinnamon help transform your glass of fruits and leafy greens into an equally healthy and tasty drink. One type of cinnamon wasn’t enough for us either. Try bold Cassia Cinnamon for orange and banana smoothies, and subtle Ceylon cinnamon for stone fruits like Turkish apricots, nectarines, and white cherries.
Turmeric, being the golden root is a known smoothie spice favorite for its anti-inflammatory properties. Our organic turmeric root powder has a gentle, earthy flavor that pairs well with smoothie favorites like baby carrots, oranges, tangerines, and peaches. Plus, some studies show that this warm, golden spice may also act as a natural liver detoxifier. Give your immune system a mega boost and add this golden spice to your smoothie.
Much like turmeric, our organic ginger root powder is also a popular spice in smoothie recipes for its ability to have powerful anti-inflammatory properties. You can double the brightness with fresh lemon or lime juice before adding ginger to a frozen peach-pineapple smoothie.
4. Nutmeg Powder
Several studies have shown that nutmeg may benefit the skin and body in many ways. Boost your appearance and your immune system by adding our organic nutmeg powder into your smoothie alongside almond milk and frozen banana.
5. Star Anise
This spice is a star for one’s health. It has a sweet, licorice-like flavor and is often used in both sweet and savory recipes. Our Organic Star anise pairs well with citrus and other fruits, making it a good choice for smoothies.
