3. Very Berry

3. Morning Boost

Looking for a morning boost? This smoothie is perfect to pair with your favorite toast for breakfast! The probiotic granules add to the unique texture that your kiddos will enjoy.

Bonus tidbit: Turmeric is actually good for asthmatic children because it’s anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic. Welcome!

3. Pour mixture into glass.
4. Top it off with 1 sachet of Bifina.

5. Chunky Monkey

Show me a kid who doesn’t love peanut butter and bananas! All your little monkeys will LOVE this drink. And if you have a little one struggling with eating their veggies, we’re adding Moringa powder to this mix so they can get the vitamins and nutrients they need (without their knowing it!)

Warning: Beware of any nut allergies before you try this.

I love using the extract powders from Herbilogy even for the kids because they are 100% extracts, are super fine, without added sugar, dyes, flavorings, MSG, preservatives or chemicals. It’s also an easy way to make the smoothies even healthier, without the kids knowing it! 😉
