What better way to synch up with spring than with an easy, delicious, on-the-go smoothie? Amy “Sweet Mama” Ree, Raw Food Chef for the renowned Deer Lake Lodge Resort & Spa, shared with Organic Spa Magazine one of her favorite drink recipes for boosting energy, restoring electrolytes and incorporating an important element—love!—to spring and every day life.

“Maca is amazing for women’s hormones,” says Ree. “[It’s] great for balance, energy and vitality. Another great benefit: It’s an aphrodisiac!” she continues. “Coconut water is wonderful for restoring electrolytes in the body, and rose tea is good for the heart and body to cool, cleanse and balance emotions. It’s also great for our skin.”

Sip Sweet Mama’s Liquid Love Raw Vegan Milkshake while on the go for an all-day indulgence. Or, save it for a great pre- or post-workout shake!
