According to Traditional Oriental Medicine, summer is the time to eat cooling foods to help be in balance with nature. Below is a delicious oriental medicine approved smoothie to enjoy during your summer BBQs.

Oriental Medicine Approved Smoothie:
  • 2 cups seedless watermelon cubed. Known as "xigua" in Chinese, this fruit is used for clearing summer heat and generating fluids. 
  • 2 kiwi fruit, peeled and chopped. Kiwi is considered a "cold" fruit, and it's perfect for adding a little tang to your smoothie.
  • 2 cups  vanilla yogurt. This will nourish the "yin" and keep you cool.
  • 1 cup ice
  • 4 sprigs of fresh mint
Directions: Place all of the ingredients in a blender and purée until smooth. Pour into 4 glasses and garnish with sprigs of fresh mint. Enjoy!
