Today is National Beverage Day. Yes, it’s a thing I didn’t know about either but apparently it’s celebrated every May 6th. To join in on the fun I decided to make a delicious punch. Not just any ole punch, though – a healthy punch! This punch is actually pretty healthy for you containing extra healthy stuff thanks to Lean Greens.
Lean Greens is a green powder supplement. It’s great for those of us that find it hard to get in our daily vegetables. Ha. That’s pretty much everyone I know.
Lean Greens contains 5 grasses, 3 superfood vegetables, 2 berries, 6 digestive enzymes and 2 metabolic ingredients that help you feel full and keep your gut in prime condition.
I could have thrown together any old punch but I wanted to drink something with a little more substance. Lean Greens added 30 calories, 6.5g carbohydrates, and 1g of protein to my Mandarin Sunrise Punch.
The grassiness flavor of Lean greens surprisingly made the punch taste more tropical. It almost has a mango pineapple taste even though those ingredients are nowhere to be found in this recipe. My son described this drink as being addicting. I say I have to agree!

It’s always great to have a bit of hidden greens in any smoothie or punch recipe if you can. The fruit flavors often help hide the taste.

That’s a great way to sneak in some veggies. Granted I would prefer to substitute the green for tequila – but I guess that’s another drink LOL
Krystle
Haha. That can be the adult version and the kiddos can have the healthy one.

I’m a little lazy when it comes to making punch or even those smoothies. But it wouldn’t hurt to try this one. Plus, the lean greens are better alternative for those who don’t have food processors for their preferred greens.
