Cinema Smoothies, a different way to enjoy the cinema

Cinema Smoothies

If you’re the kind of person who orders popcorn and a fizzy drink every time you go to the cinema, you might be a little tired of always having the same menu and the same sugary drinks. To enjoy your film just as much but with a healthier option, we suggest a smoothie.

Maybe you haven’t seen this option in any cinema you’ve been to before and you may think that it’s only possible if you bring it from home. Well, you’re wrong. If you’re in Dubai, there are cinemas where you can watch a film with one of our tasty smoothies.

Reel Cinemas

Reel Cinemas has up to six locations in Dubai where you can sample a wide variety of snacks and menus while enjoying the latest releases. Sit back and relax in your spacious chair with a built-in table for your menu to go on, with one of our delicious smoothies.

There is a combination for each type of film or for each mood. A “Green Machine” is perfect for an action film, full of energy and vitality just like this smoothie. If you’re more of a romantic, you must try a “Raspberry Love” or “Caribbean Kiss” with your film.

To relax in your large chair at Reel Cinemas and to take you to distant worlds with an exotic touch, there’s nothing better than our “Tropi Colada” or “Mango Paradise”.  And for the more adventurous the “Acai Kick” will transport you to science fiction planets with its unique taste.

If, as well as enjoying a healthy drink, you’re looking for a meal that goes perfectly with your smoothie at Reel Cinemas, you’ll also find many options, from fresh salads, to nachos, falafel and jalapeños.

In these screens equipped with the latest technology and amenities, you’re not just going to see a movie; you’re going to have a real experience. Reel cinemas have hundreds of screens. This is the largest and most luxurious cineplex in the world where you also have access to an infinite number of dining options. If you like film and food, then your best option is a cinema menu with a refreshing smoothie, so that you leave feeling full of energy and with a big smile on your face. Tempted to try this film suggestion?

Smoothies: your refreshing drink this summer

smoothie for summer

With summer comes endless days in the sun, afternoons on the beach, walks, trips… We leave the four walls of our home and find it hard to return to them. We want to enjoy our free time, the heat, our friends and we almost always do it with a drink in hand, as it is very important to stay hydrated with these high temperatures. But why give in to sugary drinks that harm our health when we can enjoy a healthy alternative? If you are looking for something light and that will also help you maintain your healthy lifestyle habits in summer…  smoothies are your solution! Are you ready for the most refreshing drink this summer?

 

A refreshing and healthy drink with many benefits

Whether you need a snack to help you recharge your batteries or you’re looking for a tasty, fresh, enjoyable drink, you’re going to love smoothies!

They are great any time of the year, but in summer they become your greatest ally, as they hydrate and help to recover the electrolytes you lose when you sweat from the heat. Essential for keeping you in good health during summer!

Also, as they are 100% made from a combination of chopped fruits and vegetables, you will be giving your body all the nutrients it needs without losing any of their properties: Vitamin B, Vitamin C, minerals… And all without even realising it, while you enjoy a very tasty and refreshing drink.

They are also the perfect complement to avoid heavy meals that make you feel very bloated in summer. If you go for a vegetables option, like the Green Machine, you’ll see how smoothies are the perfect and light alternative to eating vegetables, while having a picnic outdoors.

These types of drinks also contain a lot of fibre, so you will improve your intestinal transit and your digestion will be much easier on those days when you’re hardly ever at home.

They are also a great source of antioxidants, as they contain phyto-nutrients that will help your immune system, bones, vision and even your skin.  Perfect for still looking healthy after long days in the sun!

All great benefits!

Which is the best smoothie for me?

It’s as easy as choosing what flavour you like best, listening to your body and deciding which one to start with. If you want to take a look, you can find all the benefits that each of our smoothies provides in our catalogue. Choose the one that best suits your needs and see the percentage of vitamins, iron and calcium…

For example, if you’re looking to freshen up after an afternoon on the beach, why not indulge yourself with a combination of the exotic flavour of mango, the freshness of melon and the sweetness of strawberries in our Caribbean Kiss? Or do you prefer the consistency of bananas, and the mix of pineapples and coconuts in our Tropi Colada?

If you have been to the gym and want to recharge your batteries, we recommend the Acai Kick: Banana, Mango, Acai Seeds and Blueberries. 100% energy!

Do you have a 5-minute break at work and need an extra kick to motivate you for the rest of the day? Then you’ll love Mango Paradise. An explosive blend of mango, pineapple and passion fruit that will take you on a journey to paradise!

 

As you can see, there’s a smoothie for every occasion, so there’s no excuse to skip the sugary drinks and enjoy the most healthy and refreshing drink this summer!

 

Remember that they are also available to take away, so you can take them with you to the beach, the pool, work or wherever you want in just 30 seconds!

5 REASONS TO DRINK SMOOTHIES EVERY DAY

Some trends go as soon as they come. This not only applies to the fashion industry, but also the food industry. We want to reclaim one of Yves Saint Laurent’s most famous quotes: “Fashions fade, style is eternal”. It can be applied to many areas of life, including food. What we mean by this is that smoothies became trendy a while ago, but they have also become a way of life for many, and they are here to stay.

If you thought about trying them but were never totally convinced, here are 5 reasons to drink smoothies every day of the week. Take a look!

1. You’ll be giving your body loads of nutrition

According to the WHO, we should eat 400 grams of fruit and vegetables a day, which is the equivalent of 5 pieces in order to stay healthy. It is very important to take care of yourself and to do so every day. That’s why having a smoothie once a day can be the solution if you’re thinking of taking better care of yourself or continuing to do so, but in a more fun and creative way. In fact, by drinking just one of our smoothies, you’ll be getting half of the recommended foods and a whole host of vitamins, minerals and natural antioxidants.

You may be wondering; how can our smoothies retain all their properties? The answer lies in flash freezing. We make our smoothies from flash frozen IQF unpasteurised fruit, so they retain the taste, goodness, vitamins and minerals of freshly picked fruit.

5 REASONS TO DRINK SMOOTHIES EVERY DAY

We mustn’t forget how a good topping can add to our healthy smoothie. For example, chia seeds contain a high amount of omega 3, fibre, vitamins and minerals. Here you can see a complete list of toppings to help you take care of yourself and give your body more essential nutrients.

2. You’ll stay hydrated all day

As well as the recommended daily intake of fruit and vegetables, it is very important for adults to drink 1.5 to 2 litres of water per day. So, if you are someone who finds it hard to drink water, at LifeSmoothies we suggest you include our fruit and vegetable combinations into your hydration plan. This way you can provide your body with plenty of water every day with a delicious smoothie.

3. You’ll feel it day after day

Whether your goal is to lose weight, to improve your immune system or to simply continue to take care of yourself, over time you will notice a big improvement to your body. Because having a smoothie every day will make you a better version of yourself and above all help to prevent illnesses. Also, over time you will develop firmer skin and therefore prevent premature ageing.

4. You’ll save a lot of time in your daily routine

Our pace is a little faster today compared to a few decades ago and we strongly believe that time is precious. That’s why at LifeSmoothies we help make your routine more manageable as our smoothies are quick and easy to prepare.

When it comes to taking care of yourself, any time of the day is good, you just have to find the perfect moment: breakfast, mid-morning, after lunch, a tasty snack or a light dinner… there are many options and all of them are good!

5. Drinking smoothies is great fun!

Eating is a pleasure, and drinking smoothies is a delight! You can try different flavours every day of the week, in the smoothie world there is no such thing as getting bored. Also, as they are frozen, you can enjoy different flavours even if the fruit and vegetables are not in season.

If you have enjoyed reading this, we would like to finish with a little tip: Did you know that smoothies can help you eat that fruit or vegetable you’re not so keen on? You just have to find the perfect combination and add a small amount, the rest of the ingredients can help hide flavours you don’t like. For example, celery has many great properties but what if you don’t like it? Then try our Green Machine smoothie… you’ll be surprised!

Tell us your favourite fruit and we’ll tell you the perfect smoothie for you

As we grow up, we develop different tastes in food, our palate changes and we start to like foods that we may not have eaten before, and vice versa. When we were kids, we may have liked sweeter flavours, but now we like stronger flavours.

As they say, to each their own, and for each flavour there’s… Life Smoothies! 😉 Meaning in our range we have smoothies for all tastes. And if not, take a look at our list of fruits, you’re sure to find your favourite smoothie by the time you’ve finished reading.

Strawberry – Strawberry Split

This fruit is a classic, and we believe it is a great favourite among children and adults alike. Luckily, we can enjoy it all year round thanks to our IQF system, we pick the strawberries, prepare them and flash freeze them, so they retain their nutritional properties and their flavour.

This smoothie includes strawberries, banana, papaya and cherry; so, if you are a big lover of this fruit… congratulations! You’ve found your perfect smoothie 😊

Banana – Acai Kick

Bananas, the so-called ‘fruit of love’, are also in many of our smoothies. It is a very versatile and thickening fruit, which makes for a fuller smoothie. So, if this is your favourite fruit, one of your perfect smoothie options may very well be our Acai Kick. In this fun smoothie, you’ll also find mango, acai (hence the name) and blueberry, which gives the smoothie its distinct colour.

The Acai Kick is a very filling smoothie that is also very rich in nutrients.

Mango – Mango Paradise

This paradise-flavoured smoothie contains not only mango, but also tropical flavours such as pineapple and passion fruit. This smoothie is perfect to recover your strength or to cool down on hot days. And no wonder there are so many lovers of this superfood, because the mango is one of the most nutritious and vitamin-packed fruits that mother nature has given us. If it wasn’t your favourite fruit before, try our smoothie and it will soon be one of them!

Beach or pool?

For those who prefer fresh water, we also have a very sweet option to go perfectly with it: our Strawberry Split.

This unique smoothie, as well as being very eye-catching, has such a delicious flavour that it will soon become your best friend for a day at the pool.

It contains strawberry, which gives it that special flavour and colour; banana, which gives it the sweetness and energy to help you go a few extra lengths; papaya, which prevents skin blemishes if you’re more of a sunbather; and finally, cherry tomatoes, which contain 95% water… you see? We told you it was the perfect smoothie. 😉

On the other hand, if you prefer salt water and the feeling of sand on your feet, we recommend the smoothie Tropi Colada. This flavour will make you want to be on holiday forever as it combines banana, mango and coconut.

Bananas have many health benefits and are a very filling fruit that will prevent you from snacking between meals. Mangoes are high in fibre and aid digestion. And finally, a real fruity treasure: the coconut. This fruit will help you stay hydrated during a sunny day and is low in sugars and fats.

Outdoor gym

Gym in summer, why not? There are so many fun ways to exercise without having to work out in your usual gym. You can, for example, go skating, play tennis or go for a walk or go cycling. For this energy drain, we recommend that you finish your exercise off by drinking our Green Machine smoothie. It is a natural fuel full of vitamins and perfect for a full recovery, with spinach, broccoli, banana, celery, pineapple and mango. And best of all? The taste. Try it, you’ll be surprised!

Tai Chi at sunset

Summer gives us wonderful sunsets that help relax our body and mind, and it can be a great time to practice Tai Chi and align our chakras. That’s why a great way to finish off the day is with our Mango Paradise smoothie. Its special taste is thanks to the mango, pineapple and passion fruit; and it is this mixture that will transport you to fantastic landscapes. It will be a cure for your body and mind.

Going to the cinema

And just like a good ending to a film, the cinema can be great in the summer. A film is the best way to disconnect if you are not yet enjoying your holiday. So, we suggest you go to one of the 6 ‘Reels Cinema’ venues in Dubai. You can choose any of our smoothies because you will have all of them at your fingertips. If you can’t decide, and if you’re going to watch a romantic movie you can try our Raspberry Love; or, just the opposite, an adventure movie goes really well with our Acai Kick; but any option is good if you’re looking to disconnect and have a great experience.

If you want to enjoy a flavour-packed summer, Life Smoothies will be right there with you in your best moments.

 

 

Caribbean Kiss Smoothie, a midsummer night’s dream

Core Smoothie Caribbean Kiss-Half Glass-Half Fruits
Caribbean Kiss Smoothie, a midsummer night's dream

Summer is just around the corner and there is only one thing on our minds: enjoying the good weather, both day and night. We have a lot of things to do this time of the year, but, perhaps, what we most want to do is to be by the pool, go to the beach and sunbathe.

For these great summer plans, any of our smoothies would be the perfect accompaniment, but for now we want to talk about our Caribbean Kiss.

Its blend of flavours is a journey for the senses to the Caribbean. It perfectly blends the flavours of strawberry, mango and melon; three perfect fruits for this time of the year. In the daytime it will refresh you, and in the evening it will be the best accompaniment because it is a healthy, refreshing, hydrating and, of course, delicious option.

Want to know more about its ingredients? Then read on!

Caribbean Kiss Smoothie summer

Caribbean Kiss Smoothie Ingredients

Strawberries: It is probably the most popular ‘natural sweet’, because strawberries can be combined with so much and add a delicious flavour to everything. We are also lucky to have the IQF system to freeze the fruit within the first 24 hours of picking it, so we can enjoy this fruit all year round. Best of all, it will retain all the nutrients, vitamins and minerals, and without having to add preservatives or colourings. It’s wonderful!

Strawberries are mainly made up of water, which makes them very low in calories (e.g. 100 g of strawberries contain about 35 Kcal). Its nutrients include vitamin C, which strengthens the body’s defences, and vitamin E, which acts as an antioxidant. They are also rich in potassium and fibre that regulates intestinal transit.

Mango: Mango is another fruit that you will find in our Caribbean Kiss that gives it a very special touch. As well as flavour, mango is also an incredible fruit. As well as all its many properties, mango helps prevent diseases, helps us to look after our eyes thanks to its vitamin A content, provides many benefits to our skin and helps improve our memory, etc. Eating this fruit every day is a great idea!

Melon: It is well known that one of the characteristics of melon is its high water content, which keeps us hydrated throughout the day. That’s why our Caribbean Kiss Smoothie is perfect for this time of the year.

It is sweet and refreshing; and it also contains a lot of interesting  properties. It has high collagen content, so we could say that eating melon can help keep us young. It is also good for the nervous and muscular system due to its potassium content.

Imagine the explosion of nutrients with a Caribbean Kiss, it’s the perfect way to pamper your body!

How do I make it?

At LifeSmoothies we have many clients who sell our smoothies so that you can enjoy them wherever you are.

You simply need to buy your bag with the Caribbean Kiss ingredients. The bag is perfectly sealed so that the product is preserved at its very best. The fruit pieces are pre-selected, washed and prepared in the right amounts so that, when you finish making it, it will have our smoothie’s characteristic taste.

Add the bag of fruit to your blender and mix with 250 ml of water, or apple juice. If you want to make it with juice, we think that apple juice is best as it is neutral without changing the smoothie’s characteristic flavour too much.

In just 30 seconds you can travel to the Caribbean without ever leaving home… Sounds like a great plan, right?

At Life Smoothies we supply smoothies to the United Arab Emirates. Many cafés, hotels, restaurants, schools, hospitals, gyms, catering companies and food trucks trust in us. Try it too and start offering a unique product in your business: +971 (04) 354 2232 / [email protected]

Caribbean Kiss Smoothie, a midsummer night's dream

Smoothies with iced tea: a delicious, healthy choice

SMOOTHIES WITH ICED TEA

Imagine combining fruits, vegetables, nuts and all the properties of tea. In this post we would like to tell you about this original idea that you might like to give a go when making your smoothies, also known as smooteas. 😉

At LifeSmoothies we always recommend making smoothies by adding our frozen fruit sachet to the blender together with 250 ml of water or apple juice. Apple juice is perfect to give you that neutral touch and to enjoy all the flavour that our fruits have to offer.

But apart from apple juice, other options that can also be great for the smoothie of your choice are other types of fruit juices, coconut water, vegetable drinks or, as we will talk about, tea. Remember that you can add more or less to play with the texture. This way, you can make it thicker or thinner and add the toppings you want without them sinking.

What teas can you try in your smoothies?

There are teas with very distinctive flavours that you may like more or less. We recommend starting with teas with mild flavours or even fruit flavours, regardless of their properties.

A good choice is white tea, also known as beauty tea, as it has a mild, sweet and floral taste. Its colour is also pale and velvety, and it has become very popular among tea lovers. It is made in a way so that it is minimally processed, so we can enjoy all its benefits whilst also tasting delicious. It is also the variety of tea with the highest antioxidant content, so it’s all good for you!

Continuing with mild flavours, green tea is perhaps the next in terms of subtle flavour. This tea is one of the most popular and is perfect if you’re someone who drinks their smoothie in the morning, as green tea is a great substitute for coffee and to start the day in top form. 😊 It is also very rich in antioxidants, just like our fruits, and lowers the level of bad cholesterol.

For the more daring, red tea is a good option if you’re looking for more intense flavours. It is made using a slow fermentation, which is what makes it a very distinctive tea in terms of aroma, colour and taste. This tea is a great diuretic and helps to burn fat, so it’s also a very healthy combination to keep taking care of yourself with smoothies.

And finally, you can also try our smoothies with different fruit teas. There is now a wide variety of options available. For example, if your favourite smoothie is our Mango Paradise, you can try making it with a mango-flavoured tea, which will enhance its main ingredient. There is also a berry tea that would go perfectly with our Raspberry Love and enhance the flavour of the raspberries and blueberries.

We recommend making the tea in the evening, and when it cools, keep it in the fridge until the next day. This way it will be nice and fresh when it is time to drink it.

With this smoothie idea you’ll still get a refreshing drink that we love so much at this time of the year. They will also help you manage your weight as they provide a lot of antioxidants, which, together with the power of the fruit, will make your smoothie the perfect healthy option to continue taking care of yourself this summer.

Chromotherapy with your smoothies, experience full colour

Chromotherapy with your smoothies

Have you ever heard of chromotherapy with food? Our smoothies, as well as being delicious and full of nutrients, are a pleasure to look at because they are full of colour and life. So, you can practice some chromotherapy with our smoothies, and it will be another perfectly unique way to take care of yourself.

Chromotherapy is about taking care of yourself by focusing on the pigments that give food some colour, such as in this case fruit and vegetables, because they have a protective function for the body. But also, colours produce in us sensations that help our body and mind, by influencing our mood and feelings.

This technique has been studied in psychology and can be applied in other fields, for example, in marketing, in film and even in decorating spaces, looking for different environments and sensations.

Want to discover what each colour of our smoothies hides? Then read on 😊

Tropi Colada: White or light colours

In general, the colour white is said to bring light, transparency, peace and harmony; but it also brings security and honesty. It is a positive and healthy colour, as there are many foods that are white on the inside or outside and are delicious and rich in potassium and antioxidants.

White is not the absence of colour, but in fact it has about 67 different shades. And although our Tropi Colada smoothie is not completely white, it contains foods such as coconut and banana, which tend to be light foods, so it falls within this colour and its qualities.

The coconut in our Tropi Colada is a fruit with antioxidant properties, regulates blood pressure and is rich in fibre and minerals. The banana also has high nutritional properties, which makes this smoothie a great choice to start taking care of yourself. 😉

Chromotherapy with your smoothies

Green Machine: Green colour

The colour green represents nature and hope, but it is also related to health. Many foods, especially vegetables, are green, and are generally rich in potassium, vitamins and folic acid.

In our case, the Green Machine smoothie, is made with spinach, celery and broccoli, which is what gives it its green colour and makes it a nutritionally super smoothie.

Chromotherapy with your smoothies

Strawberry Split: Red colour

The colour red represents energy, warmth and has a life-giving component, because it is the colour of our blood. Many foods also contain this natural pigment because they are rich in antioxidants and help circulation, memory and play an important role in protecting the skin.

Our Strawberry Split smoothie has this reddish colour due to the strawberries, cherries and papaya in it. Together with banana, they make this smoothie delicious and even addictive. That’s why the colour red is also a symbol of caution, because once you try our smoothie you won’t want to stop drinking it, you’ll love it! 😉

Chromotherapy with your smoothies

Acai Kick and Raspberry Love: Purple colour

This colour is a symbol of elegance and spirituality, as well as luxury. It is related to the world of dreams, imagination and promotes creativity. Eating foods of this colour, such as blueberries, helps anti-ageing, which is perhaps why it is so widely used in children’s food.

Our Acai Kick and Raspberry Love smoothies have such a characteristic colour thanks to this small fruit rich in properties. The height of luxury! 😉

Chromotherapy with your smoothies

Mango Paradise and Caribbean Kiss: Orange and yellow colours

These colours are mainly found in citrus fruits and symbolise fun and energy. Fruits such as mango, melon and pineapple in our smoothies are rich in vitamins and minerals, which will fill you with the strength and energy to start the day right.

Now that you know the meaning behind the colours, discover which is your favourite fruit and we’ll tell you the perfect smoothie for you.

Raspberry Love, the smoothie that all palates love

Raspberry Love, the smoothie that all palates love

There is a clear focus in this post: our smoothie Raspberry Love. We would like to tell you about this smoothie that is as pleasing for its colour as it is for its flavour. When we say that all palates love this smoothie, it is because it combines several flavours that give it a great balance: not quite sweet and not quite bitter. It is the perfect combination.

If you haven’t tried it yet, after reading what we’ll share below, it is sure to become your favourite.

Raspberry Love: a blend of flavours

Our Raspberry Love smoothie combines several flavours. It is made for when you fancy something sweet, but not too sweet. This is achieved thanks to the raspberry, which, although its taste tends to be sweet and sour, can be eaten raw without being too bitter. This velvety fruit also gives it an exquisite aroma, which your sense of smell will love.

Blueberries are also another fruit you can find in our Raspberry Love. These berries, which belong to the forest fruits family, are dark blue in colour, which gives the smoothie its unique colour. Like all the fruit in our products, the blueberries are picked and frozen when they are perfectly ripe, which, together with our preparation tips, helps the fruit retain its vitamins and benefits.

In complete contrast, is the banana flavour in this smoothie. This is the fruit that adds that sweet touch to our smoothie. Plus, its smooth and soft texture makes it easy to make your smoothie bowl. Don’t be put off by the amount of sugar in a banana. They are good sugars, and we don’t let the fruit fully ripen, avoiding a high sugar content. The banana is frozen at the perfect time to maintain high levels of antioxidants and its high fibre content.

Raspberry Love, the smoothie that all palates love

When to drink your Raspberry Love

All of our smoothies are made to be enjoyed at any time of the day. But if we had to pick a time, we would pick the evening, after a day at the beach, for example. It will help to cool you down and hydrate you after being in the sun.

But it’s also a perfect smoothie to enjoy for an evening at the cinema in any of the 6 Reels Cinemas in Dubai. In a nutshell, it is a smoothie to complement any plans you may have this summer.

Did you know that its flavours can also “teleport” you? Discover the destinations and how you can travel through our smoothies.

Welcome September with your smoothies and new healthy resolutions

Welcome September smoothies healthy resolutions

We know that there are still some summer days left, but September is usually synonymous with getting back into the routine and the end of the holidays for many. It is also often the time when we look back and remember those resolutions we still have to keep before the end of the year.

Because summer is a time to enjoy, and although we like to continue taking care of ourselves, for example, by drinking our refreshing smoothies, these are also the days when we tend to deviate a little. Perhaps you have exercised less than usual, or enjoyed different, delicious, but less healthy meals. The most important thing is also to enjoy yourself!

So, if this speaks to you, don’t worry. If you read on, you’ll see that our tips can help you get off to the best start as you go back to work or school.

Exercising from less to more

This advice, above all, is aimed at those who have stopped a bit of physical activity and have been spending more time resting. Well done! But it’s time to get the body up to speed.

Our body has a memory, and that’s the good thing about having kept an exercise routine throughout the year. Even so, we recommend that you start from less to more so you do not end up worn out and also to avoid unwanted injuries. However, if you’re going to start exercising after the holidays, it’s never too late! We also recommend that you start off slowly so that you can stick to the routine and not tire yourself out too much.

It is always good to keep hydrated and have your energy up to full strength before exercising. Our Green Machine smoothie will help boost your energy thanks to its fruit and vegetables, so don’t wait any longer and add it to your diet! 😊

Welcome September smoothies healthy resolutions

Organise your daily meals

Another important point to bear in mind is how little time we have when we come back off holiday. Eating out often becomes one of our favourite activities: trying different foods, tasting other cultures or enjoying delicious desserts.

To organise your daily meals and continue taking care of yourself, we recommend that you do a weekly shopping for what you need and plan what you are going to eat. This will help you to take care of yourself more and to avoid raiding the fridge or throwing food away, because if you buy too much food it can go bad.

For your weekly menus, we recommend you bear in mind the wide variety of smoothies we have, which will allow you to enjoy different flavours every day. You can buy them at any of our distribution centres. As well as taking care of yourself, you’ll enjoy their incredible flavour!

Plan your activities

We want to get a lot done in less time, so we recommend you dust off your diary and start setting schedules. For example, taking up your favourite activity again, meeting up with friends or family you haven’t seen in a long time, or simply taking time to yourself. It is better to organise all your activities so that you don’t get overwhelmed by not having enough time.

One thing you’re probably looking forward to is going back to the cinema with your friends. Remember, if you decide to go, you can enjoy our fresh smoothies at any of the ‘Reels Cinema’ in Dubai. This way you can continue to take care of yourself while watching a great film – all pluses!

Welcome September smoothies healthy resolutions

We hope these tips will help you to start off September in the best way possible. And as there are still a few hot days left, why not discover different refreshing and fun ways to drink your smoothie for the rest of the summer.
