This green tonic has become a staple in our home—healing, immune-boosting, balancing, and surprisingly satisfying. It takes less than five minutes to make in a blender, and I love sipping it throughout the day as a snack or using it to cook grains like rice instead of water for extra nutrient benefits. Anytime my family or I feel run-down, we make this, and we also enjoy it year-round as prevention. Why wait until you’re sick to make this?
One of the superstars of this tonic is spirulina, a nutrient-dense green algae that I always keep in my kitchen. Just 1 tablespoon delivers 4 grams of protein, B12, vitamins A and C, iron, chlorophyll, and phytonutrients that support detoxification and help maintain your body’s alkalinity. I also add spirulina to smoothies, salad dressings, and soups, making it a versatile daily booster.
