Silk Pure Almond: Date in Bombay Smoothie

3 Comments

I love to travel and I don’t get to do it enough so instead I let my taste buds take the trip. Food is an amazing thing, it can take you anywhere in the world without even leaving the comfort of your own kitchen.  With each sip of this creamy smoothie you’ll be transported to India.

The garam masala and the ginger are warming, while the dates give it a nice sweetness and the Pure Almond makes it nice and creamy.  You might be thinking creamy? It just be high in fat and calories as well but with only 191 calories and 1.4 grams of fat per serving it is a wonderful healthy treat.
