This recipe is perfect for after your workout. Why? It has the protein your muscles need to repair those micro muscle tears, and the berry and date combo is a sweet reward for your sweat sesh. Follow this, and you will have two smoothies – cut the recipe in half for a single drink. We had this smoothie after a HIIT/yoga fusion class at Afterglow Studio in Toronto’s Beaches neighbourhood.
Thankfully, the studio owner Julie Watson allowed us to share the recipe.
