Add a bit of fresh creativity to your breakfast. Today I introduce you a delicious and extraordinary smoothie: 250 grams of Budwig smoothie* accompanied by 200 ml of green tea.

It’s a mix of fresh fruit, dry fruit, seeds, and cereal grains, full of nutrients. The smoothie is deliciously good, healthy and provides satiety. Try it if you haven’t yet.
