Do you ever get back from a trip or a vacation and just feel downright gross? I call it the travel hangover and it has many causes. It’s either from jet lag, long layovers, traveling with kids in general or just the idea that the fun has ended and its back to the normal routine. The travel hangover usually means I will spend my whole day in jammies with really good intentions of doing all the laundry, unpacking, and grocery shopping. None of which usually happen.
Sometimes all you need is a hydrating smoothie to help detox from all the sugary road trip snacks, airport fast-food, or that awful red-eye your child slept for 20 minutes of (true story).
I love this particular recipe for after traveling because it rehydrates, gives you lots of healthy fruits and veggies to regulate your metabolism, a big kick of vitamin C for your immune system which is a really good thing if you are tired and have been traveling. No one wants to be sick and jet lagged.
And of
Throw it all together in a blender and blend until you get a smooth consistency of your liking. This recipe will make four small smoothies or two medium smoothies. Enjoy! This is one of our favorites!
