Notes
notes:
*you want to use raw apple cider vinegar {acv} with 'the mother' still in it so it will look like there are chunks floating in it or settled at the bottom. and you may want to start with a smaller serving if you are sensitive to the acv taste. i personally LOVE Meg's homemade acv from modernroots.org. it's so mild, it's one of the only acv i can drink straight out of the jar. otherwise i recommend purchasing Bragg's organic raw acv.
*not all ingredients are required to make the 'perfect' smoothie {there is no such thing as the perfect smoothie in my world} use what you have on hand and play around with the ingredients/additions until you find what tickles your tastebuds.
