Currently Craving

Have you guys tried coconut water lately? It is being widely talked about in the health/fitness realm and is being touted for it's numerous health benefits. But the truth is, it really is a wonderful product! It's rich source of electrolytes makes it a perfect beverage to hydrate your body. Plus it's really tasty-like a tropical little treat!

I have recently been indulging in what I call an Orange Dream Machine smoothie. And yes, it is every bit as delectable as it sounds! The addition of coconut water to my daily green smoothies have taken my morning meal to a whole new level of awesome!

Try it for yourself and be amazed at the creamy texture it adds, along with the energy boost it offers!
