FAQ

What other teas can I use in place of chamomile?

Sub out chamomile teas for any other soothing herbal teas including lavender, rose, and mint.

I don’t like the taste of ginger, what can I add instead?

If you still want to add a “kick” to this smoothie, try to add cinnamon. Ground cinnamon will give a punch of flavor while also regulating blood sugar and adding anti-inflammatory benefits.
