Witches Brew Smoothie Raw and Vegan Recipe for Halloween
This vegan witches brew smoothie is a delicious and healthy treat for goblins of any age! It’s a bargain, too … serves 4 at about $1.43 per serving!
Spinach, Romaine, and Beets!
This smoothie gets much of its scary delicious goodness from greens. I’ve used spinach and romaine here, but any green will work and also offer about the same nutrition. This is really good with kale, too.
Beets are awesome superfoods. They’re great for your cardiovascular system and actually help your blood vessels produce Nitric Oxide, which helps keep your arteries supple and relaxed.
A basic green smoothie can easily become witches brew. Add a beet hand for a creepy effect!
In a blender, with about a half cup water (or more, if needed), blend the romaine until very smooth. Even a small blender will do this well if the greens are blended first. Add the banana and frozen mango and blend until smooth. Serve in a punch bowl or your favorite cauldron, if desired.
For the hand, you’ll need a latex glove. Rinse the inside of the glove well and fill with water and the beet juice. Make a knot in the top of the glove, or tie shut with a rubber band. Freeze for several hours or overnight, until frozen solid. Run under hot water for a second or two and then peel the glove from the hand. Put in the center of your witches brew. This serves four, so there are plenty of chilly fingers to go around.
Witches Brew Smoothie Raw Vegan Recipe for Halloween
Ingredients
- 6 cups spinach, romaine, and/or kale
- 3 ripe bananas, frozen
- 1 cup ripe frozen mango chunks
- water or plant milk for blending
- 1 cup beet juice
Instructions
Smoothie
- This is super simple. Just add the greens, frozen bananas, frozen mango, and water or plant milk to a blender. Puree for a minute or so until smooth and creamy.
Hand
- Rinse the inside of the glove well and fill with the beet juice. Add water if needed to make the properly sized hand.
- Make a knot in the top of the glove, or tie shut with a rubber band. Freeze for several hours or overnight, until frozen solid.
- Run under hot water for a second or two and then peel the glove from the hand. Put in the center of your witches brew. This serves four, so there are plenty of chilly fingers to go around.
- This is cool served in a punch bowl with the beet hand in the center. The hand will melt, leaving a red streaky ooze and the fingers can be broken off and placed in individual servings.
