Smoothie

There's a lot of enthusiasm around Smoothie that I find slightly excessive. It's a good drink — prepared cold-brewed it's genuinely pleasant and the hydration is real. But the brewing time that enthusiasts obsess over makes less difference to the final result than they suggest. I enjoy it regularly…

I've moved Smoothie from morning to afternoon and it works better for me that way. Prepared over ice around 3pm, the hydration carries through the rest of the day rather than the morning.

I picked up Smoothie reluctantly — my doctor suggested it and I was sceptical. Prepared hot the first time I thought it was fine but nothing special. By the second week I was actively looking forward to it. The hydration is real. The temperature of preparation surprised me — there's more going on i…

The temperature of preparation at the quality end is in another category. The mental clarity was also more pronounced. You don't need to s…

Tried making Smoothie from scratch rather than buying it ready-made. The ratio of ingredients is more involved than the packaged version suggests but the result is genuinely better. Prepared hot with properly sourced ingredients, the sustained focus is more pronounced and the whole experience is mor…

I've been drinking Smoothie daily for 10 years now and it's as much a habit as a preference. Prepared hot every morning, the quality of the source takes maybe a minute of attention and the result is consistently good. The energy without the crash has been a constant. Some habits you keep because yo…
