These powerful drinks will speed up the rate at which you burn calories, provide the necessary energy and help you fit in those jeans again!

Tropical smoothie

In addition to speeding up your metabolism, this smoothie is rich in vitamin A and C and helps in strengthening the immune system.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup of cantaloupe cubes
  • 1/2 cup of sliced mango
  • 1/2 cup of pumpkin cubes
  • 1/2 cup of sliced pineapple
  • 1/2 water if needed

This drink is so refreshing it will turn your room into a sunny beach!

Date smoothie

The real energy bomb and health in a glass!

Ingredients:

  • A couple of dates, to taste
  • 1 banana
  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • 1 cup of almond or coconut milk

The fact is that the almond and coconut milk is a bit more expensive compared to cow’s milk, but in this case you should make an exception, at least from time to time. Almond milk is very tasty even without sweeteners, and has a low calorific value. Coconut milk, in addition to a great taste, has very little carbs.

Pineapple and ginger smoothie

Ginger will help you increase the speed of your metabolism, and if you don’t like pineapple, replace it with orange, tangerine or lemon.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of pineapple chunks
  • 1 medium banana
  • 1 teaspoon of grated ginger root
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice (without added sugar)

Put all ingredients in a blender and mix until the mass becomes smooth.
