Most likely the magic elixir of Asterix and Obelix was not a soup-like magic potion at all but a detox power smoothie such as this one, which we are happy to present to you:
Recipe for 2 people (makes about 1.3 liters):
- 200 g pineapple
- 1 fennel
- 1 apple
- 150 g celery with leaves
- 2 bananas
- juice of one orange (freshly squeezed)
- some fresh coriander greens
- 3-4 cm aloe vera leaf*. Remove skin with sharp knife or potato peeler. Yields about 1 tbsp. of gel.
- 3 dl water (one drinking glass)
Put the pineapple, fennel, apple and celery in the juicer. Blend the juice together with the remaining ingredients and enjoy.
*Aloe vera is a very versatile medicinal plant and has been used since ancient times as a natural remedy for wound healing, burns and insect bites. Internally it acts against bacteria, viruses, fungus, helps with gastrointestinal problems, constipation and provides us with bioactive vitamin B12, various minerals and trace elements. Aloe vera is very easy to grow in a pot.
Sincerely yours, Way back to you team
