Five new Holiday Smoothie Recipes for you to enjoy! (iPhone or not!) Because this year, I'm feeling generous...

I'm feeling generous. I originally wanted to make my five new holiday smoothie recipes into an exclusive update for those who have purchased my Smoothies! iPhone App. But I have caved.

While I still want all you savvy iPhone users out there to download the update (which features the new recipes and a slightly modified/easier viewing format) - I also want all my loyal blog readers to be able to celebrate the holiday season by sipping these yummy, festive smoothies.

So here ya go! Happy holidays to all the smoothie fans out there. All you straw-wielding souls who won't let winter get between you and frozen bevie! All you rebels who come in from the cold and whip up a frosty tall glass of blended bliss. You are all my heroes. 🙂

Here are my holiday smoothies..

1) This frosty chocolate shake will make you feel cozy all winter long. This cocoa is ice-blended for a cool crisp flavor. Add some smores accents( like vegan marshmallows and graham cracker crumbles) on top for a special winter treat.

Blend until smooth. Pour. Garnish. Serve.

2) This spicy-sweet-tart smoothie will give your body a boost of antioxidants. Spicy cayenne meets a hint of vanilla and dark healthy berries. Perfect as a late afternoon pick-me-up or morning energizer!..
