mocha maca smoothie recipe

26th February 2015
Oh I do love a Starbucks run to start the day. But unfortunately my bank balance and waistline don’t quite feel the same when it comes to indulging in a Mocha or five on a weekly basis. So this week I decided to rustle up a little something to help me kick that unhealthy and expensive habits butt whilst also trying out the new Kenwood Silver Smoothie maker. Ingredients 1 Banana 1 tbsp Maca Powder 1 tbsp Raw Cacao Powder An espresso shot of coffee (I use my Nespresso coffee machine but you can easily use instant) 1 tbsp Almond Butter 1 tbsp PhD Woman Chocolate Protein Powder 1 tsp Cinnamon 1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk 1/2 cup Ice cold water a handfull of Ice Cubes Obviously I shoved that all into the Kenwood and blended until smooth and creamy. Now it’s definitely not my beloved Nutribullet but at a budget friendly £36 I should hope so too, however for that price its a great addition to your kitchen if you are looking for an inexpensive yet stylish smoothie maker to sit conveniently on your  Kitchen work top. It reminds me of retro Smeg appliances but with a cool chrome finish. The spout makes for a no nonsense convenient smoothie pouring and the stir stick really did prove an efficient addition to the process. I’d definitely recommend this for those who aren’t wanting to spurge on a smoothie maker but still want something stylish an efficient. This is recipe is my saving grace on these dull mornings right now (seriously now, what is with the weather today) The shot of coffee provides me with that instant antioxidant packed caffeine hit whilst the Maca is packed with vitamins and minerals that give your energy an overall boost. I especially like to add a scoop […]

Ad Embarking on a journey of timeless treasures, my passion for antiquing began in the warmth of late summer 2019. When I discovered my father’s old boarding school tuck trunk nestled in the attic of their home. Since then, my weekends have unfolded like chapters in a novel, meandering through antiques emporiums and brocantes across the country.

Each trip unveils a tapestry of tales from bygone eras - from weathered pickling jars and vases to opulent French chandeliers and steamer trunks, and with each trip, I was captivated by the hidden secrets and untold histories woven into each artefact.

Everything feels a little more optimistic as March begins don’t you think?
It’s the start of spring in my book Evergreen shortly followed by the spring equinox so there’s ample time to prepare, nest and refresh. 
The light returns, hello March 🌱
There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad weather attire 💧
A little indulgence from my comfort of my own home thanks to INCREDIBLE @kmp_skin and @freshbeauty Ad 
for the launch of the new Lotus Youth Preserve Resurfacing dream serum which is a gentle AHA serum with prickly pear flower extract said to boost radiance and it was so lovely to be treated to a first trial to get a very first impression of the serum thanks to KMP and her magic hands. I’ve literally never had a facial like it!
