    MTV VMA Detox Smoothie: Razzle Dazzle Me.

    Last night I was lucky enough to be at the MTV Video Music Awards at Radio City Music Hall in NYC. Needless to say, it was awesome. I was in the standing-room only “fan pit” up front. Because, yes I like to have a little fun here in New York City.

    Razzle Dazzle Me.
    When I woke up this morning I was up, but not awake. Ten hours of excitement and dancing in heels will do that to a girl! I’ve gotten into a habit of turning to fresh/strong juices and smoothies to get me going in the morning, rather than chugging three soy lattes like I did back in college. Caffeine can only take you so far. Perk you Up ingredients take me all the way to “ready for anything” mode. This morning I made an amazing Razzle Dazzle Me Smoothie that brought me back to life. You’ve got to try this delicious recipe. I’ll also tell you my Top Ten favorite “fan pit” VMA moments from last night. A few pics too. Check it out…

    First the recipe, then my VMA Top Ten…

    Razzle Dazzle Ingredients. This smoothie is awesome! The dash of cayenne gives it a spicy accent that intensifies the flavors of all the rest of the ingredients which include: sweet-tart raspberries, antioxidant-rich wild blueberries, tangy apple cider vinegar, smooth soy milk, sweet acai juice, nutty flax seed meal and of course icy coconut water ice cubes.
