Ingredients

Cherry Smoothie
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen cherries
  • 4 Tablespoons Great Lakes Gelatin Collagen Endurance Plus black Cherry Flavor
  • 1 cup coconut water
Mango Banana Smoothie
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup mango chunks fresh or frozen
  • 1 banana
  • 1 orange peeled
  • 1 lice of lemon
  • 1 cup coconut water

Notes

  • Highlight Tropical Fruits such as mangos, pineapple, papaya, kiwi, banana, passionfruit and guava.
  • Make two or more layers of smoothie for color contrast and extra nutritional benefit to your smoothie.
  • Use GLG Collagen Endurance Plus as a thickener, a vitamin B booster and collagen supplement to the smoothie!
  • Infuse the cherry layer with extra cherry flavor using the black cherry flavored GLG Collagen Endurance Plus.
  • Always make a combo of frozen and fresh fruits to play with the thickness of layers in your smoothie.
  • If you’re looking for separate distinct layers of smoothies, then use mainly frozen fruits for the recipe.
  • However if you’re looking to disintegrate layers and colors so vibrantly in the smoothie as I’ve done here, then make a layer thicker than the other.
  • To blend the colors and layers as I’ve done here, start by the thickets smoothie later at the bottom. In this case it’s the cherry smoothie.
  • Use a ladle to gradually add the second layer, in this case the Mango banana smoothie or Pineapple banana smoothie. Add that in ladles and watch the layers blend so beautifully.
  • Use coconut water for an extra boost of electrolytes and hydration to your smoothie. Also coconut water adds a tropical feel to the tropical smoothie.
  • Make this a Pre-work out or Post-work out smoothie since the GLG Collagen Endurance Plus is boosted with Caffeine and Vitamin B’s.
  • Make extra smoothie cups and keep them in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • You can double or triple this recipe for a crowd, or even halve it for two servings.
  • You can freeze the smoothie layers separately in ice cubes. Defrost them and assemble the smoothie or pop them frozen as a refreshing treat.
  • ENJOY!!
