Eartharita

This fiesta-in-your-mouth Earth Milk variation is from THM Certified Coach Magaly Weaver. Magaly says: “when I first saw the craze about the Earth Milk I thought to myself I would never have veggies in my drink. I mean, why should I put blended veggies in my drink when I actually love eating my veggies? It's not like I have a veggie deficiency! So I created my own version of Earth Milk and fell in love with it!!" This recipe was "featured" in the Trim Healthy Living EZine~ Edition 21!

This fiesta-in-your-mouth Earth Milk variation is from THM Certified Coach Magaly Weaver.

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups ice cubes
  • 8 oz water
  • 1 TH Lemon Love Hydrate Packet (1-single serve packet; optional, or substitute for 1/2 to 1 Tbsp of TH Baobab Boost Powder to make it extra citrusy)
  • 1 tsp TH Gentle Sweet (1-2 tsp)
  • 4 tsp Tajin (I used the blue lid/low sodium version, if using regular Tajin, you'll want to reduce the amount)
  • 1 medium cucumber (medium-large; seeded and diced)
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice
  • 1 cup fresh spinach (fresh baby spinach)
  • 1 1/2 Tbs TH Integral Collagen
  • 1 tsp MCT oil
  • 1/2 tsp TH Just Gelatin (dissolved in a 1/2 cup hot water)
Instructions
  1. 1
    Mix all ingredients well in blender, using only 2 teaspoons of the Tajin. Set the remaining 2 teaspoons aside for step 2. Strain the blended liquid into a 24-ounce jar (you’ll have leftovers depending on the amount of water and ice you’ve used).
  2. 2
    Sprinkle the remaining 2 teaspoons of Tajin onto a small, flat surface. Wet a glass rim with a squeeze of lime and dip it into the Tajin.
  3. 3
    Pour your Earth-arita from your jar into the prepared glass! Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Recipe Suggestions from Magaly:

  • You can double or quadruple this recipe to be easier on you. I recently used my
    juicer appliance and I added whole cucumbers and spinach to the juicer. It took less
    than 2 minutes. I still have to strain the cucumber and spinach residue into a jar as
    they had a lot of juice.
  • When in comes to “juicing”, please keep in mind that drinking liquid carbs from
    high glycemic fruits or root vegetables are OFF-plan.
  • Using cucumbers and spinach, which are FP fuels, are okay to use in moderation (1 cup or less per quart jar to keep it in FP-territory and in sipper-mode when you add the water and ice). So, whatever amounts of cucumber and spinach juice you have gathered from the
    juicer, make sure you use 1 cup or less with water and add the rest of ingredients to
    each quart jar to make ahead of time.
  • After making this several times, you can omit the gelatin if you use the baobab powder. Baobab is a natural thickener.
  • I decided if I was going to drink this, it needed to fit my own taste buds. I have always liked cucumbers, lemons, limes so why not give it a try... but also Tajin and Lemon Love Hydrates had to be present to the fiesta. These combinations of flavors are the best childhood memories from Mexico. I hope you can enjoy this tweak as much as I have. Now I'm challenging YOU to make this.
