Want a Quick healthy hangover smoothie to perk you up?
This quick healthy hangover smoothie is just what your body needs after having one too many at christmas. The ultimate hangover cure that doesn’t involve a greasy fry up.
Let me guess? You had one too many, and now you’re paying for it? This means you most likely didn’t take my advice from previous post on how to stay healthy during the holiday binge. If you woke up this morning with a splitting headache and that dreaded furry taste in your mouth, not to worry. I got you covered!
There is a healthy way
A few years ago, I would’ve probably been in the same position or worse. Quick to take a couple of aspirin and wash them down with the hair of the dog, (Gin & Tonic) then heading straight to the kitchen for the greasiest fry up I could conjur. What can I say, I was young and didn’t know any better, don’t judge me! Ten bucks says you’ve probably done it too at some point;-).
Luckily, I created this awesome green smoothie recipe that not only helps soothe that nasty hangover but also nourishes your body with essential vitamins, detoxifies AND helps relieve bloat. For more detoxifying smoothies, Dherbs has some healthy recipes for you to try on their website. You don’t have to be hungover to drink this one, but if you are…..you can thank me later;-).
Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
2 cups of spinach
1 cup kale
1 cup coconut milk (I use Vitacoco)
½ cup orange juice
1 large banana
½ cup pineapple
1 tablespoon of rice malt syrup (If you prefer it sweeter, although personally I don’t add this)
1 cup of ice
1 Cup of kiwi sliced
Directions:
1. Mix spinach, coconut milk, orange juice, banana, pineapple, honey and ice together and blend until smooth. Bish, Bash, Bosh and Voila!!!
Tip: If you don’t have fresh pineapple, feel free to substitute with strawberries or blueberries, frozen fruit will also do the trick. I also added some barleygrass, spirulina, wheatgrass and maca superfood powders to mine, because I’m extra like that. You don’t have to add it if it’s not your thing, it’s totally optional.
So you see? It really is a quick hangover smoothie cure through and through. All you need is a decent slow juicer, the ingredients and you will be on your way to a hangover miracle! Plus, as you got more than your 5 a day in as well, you have my full permission to feel like a total boss after you drink it!
Till next time, don’t forget to Love the life you’re living!

This sounds incedible and admittedly for me, if I have a raging hangover, the one and only thing I want is a Coke with ice and a Big Mac oops x

give it a try and let me know how you get on with it x
Hangover cures are definitely needed right now. I tend to have a Berocca and a protein shake – they do wonders at getting nutrients back into you.

This looks like a fab recipe! My flatmate and I have really gotten into homemade smoothies these days! I’ll have to make note of this one! Thank for sharing and I hope you have a fab new year!
Actually I quite fancy trying that. Not sure about maca powder though but I’d try the spirulina.

I need to start increasing my iron in my diet as my levels are dangerously low so I love the idea of trying the kale in a smoothie as it might be better for me mixed with the sweetness from the pineapple.
I don;’t tend to suffer with hangovers, probably as I don’t drink often but this looks like a lovely healthy smoothy
This sounds like such a delicious smoothie! Bet plenty of people will be needing this on Monday morning, haha!
Apart from a hangover, this smoothie looks delicious. Besides, coconut in and on everything hehe
