Kim's note

A pinch of black pepper with turmeric isn't a mistake — it activates the curcumin and makes the whole thing work harder for you. You won't taste it, but your body will notice.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup frozen mango chunks
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1 cup plant milk (coconut or oat work beautifully)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

How to make it

  1. 1

    Add all ingredients to a blender.

  2. 2

    Blend on high for 60 seconds until completely smooth and a deep golden color.

  3. 3

    Taste and add honey or maple syrup if you'd like it a touch sweeter.

  4. 4

    Pour into two glasses and drink within 10 minutes for the best texture and color.

  5. 5

    Rinse the blender immediately — turmeric stains are stubborn and patient.
