Ever find yourself craving or reminiscing on old candies you used to eat as a kid? I was always a sucker for anything sweet and tangy, which is probably why I love this smoothie so much. This smoothie is boosted with beet root powder, which supplies the nutrient betaine to support your liver. Here's what you'll need.

Ingredients:
-1 medium organic banana (ripe) 
-1/2 cup frozen organic red raspberries (this adds a little bit of that tangy flavor)
-1 tablespoon organic beetroot powder (I use this one)
-1 tablespoon organic pitaya (dragonfruit) powder (I use this one)
-water to desired consistency 

Directions:

1. Combine banana, raspberries, beetroot powder, pitaya powder, and water.
2. Blend until very smooth (this is a little longer than usual because of the red raspberry seeds), and enjoy!

Serves 1

Tips:
-Using frozen fruit instead of ice creates a very smooth texture, however, if you only have fresh fruit, just add 1 cup of ice to this recipe.
-You can store and freeze all of the fruit ingredients together ahead of time to have a quick and easy, "just add water," meal or snack for on-the-go.
