Spiced Cranberry & Clementine Smoothie

by 19 Comments

I have been experimenting recently with winter smoothies. As the weather turns chilly, I don’t find myself  in the mood for slurping a cool fruity drink. So, I have remedied that by creating a spiced cranberry and clementine smoothie, made using my Froothie, flavoured with cinnamon and vanilla powders. The warmth of the spices blends perfectly with the frozen and the dried cranberries along with some freshly grated ginger and the zing of juicy clementines.

Spiced Cranberry & Clementine Smoothie

This is almost like a mulled wine smoothie. I could quite happily add a measure or two of vodka or a glass of red wine to it and enjoy it as an evening cocktail. An alcoholic drink that is good for you, almost.

I am linking my smoothie to Simple an in Season (Ren Behan), Family Foodies (Eat your Veg & Bangers & Mash) and Fresh Cranberry Recipe Link Up at Blue Kitchen Bakes.
