Daddy decided one night that a smoothie sounded like a good, fresh dinner (understand it's 80 here on a daily basis) and ever since that fateful night, Amiya is the smoovie posterchild. Until this point I've been perfectly happy going to our local smoothie place and getting her one on occasion but she's had a nagging cough for about a week now, a clear runny nose and has been sleeping a lot more than usual. So, being the stay at home Mom (literally - we haven't been going anywhere so as to not spread the love) with time on her hands, I came up with a smoothie full of all that Amiya doesn't like (anything with copious amounts of Vitamin C and lots of juice).
We blend 1 c. fresh squeezed orange juice, 1/2 c. 100% cranberry juice, 1 c. mixed frozen berries and a handful of ice cubes. Chock full of Vitamin C, antioxidants and delicious flavor - Amiya thinks she's in smoovie heaven while Mommy and Daddy have the secret happiness of tricking her into drinking juice and getting lots of fluids.
