5 Reasons to try our new Shakes!

5 Reasons to try our new Shakes!

Life Smoothies’ new Shakes are this year’s next big thing. They have four different flavours and are suited to all tastes and palates. Whether you like more or less sweet flavours, once you’ve tried them all, there’s sure to be one that will become your favourite. If you’ve already tried them, we’d love to hear your experience – leave us a comment telling us what you think!

If you haven’t had the chance to enjoy them yet, here are 5 reasons why you should try our Shakes, take note!

Always healthy

Both the fruit in our smoothies and the fruit in our Shakes retain all their nutritional properties. This is thanks to shock freezing, where once the ripe fruit has been picked, we use IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) without pasteurisation to ensure it is packed full of flavour and nutrients. A super effective way of keeping the fruit in perfect condition.

These are the fruits hidden in our Shakes:

  • Cherries: In season in spring and summer, are high in vitamins and potassium and help against ageing.
  • Banana: Great source of fibre that helps our digestive system.
  • Strawberries: Improve our defences this winter and are detoxifying and diuretic.

Shakes are another alternative to continue enjoying your favourite fruit all year round and alternate them with our smoothies. Aren’t they great?

They are packed full of flavour

When you are taking care of yourself, and enjoying doing so, it’s an amazing feeling. That’s why you’ll love drinking our Shakes, without feeling guilty.

Our Cherry & Chocolate has all the flavour of this fun fruit, to which we also add the flavour of chocolate. A real treat in the form of a Shake, you’ll feel like you’re enjoying a delicious dessert.

Vanilla lovers are in luck, because you’ve now found your favourite Shake, our Vanilla Mix. As well as its flavour, it will win you over with its great aroma.

Like salted caramel? Our Banana & Salted Caramel is one of the most unique because it mixes very intense flavours and is full of contrasts. You must try it!

And finally, our Strawberry & White Chocolate. It is a very unique taste that appeals to people of all ages.

By now we must have convinced you, but read on and we’ve got even more reasons 😉

The sweet treat of the daymilk

There are times when our body asks for certain flavours, we want to enjoy sweeter foods more than savoury ones and vice versa. That’s why our Shakes can be that delicious, sweet treat to indulge in, while still taking care of yourself.

At any time of the day

They are suitable for any time of the day because their flavours are delicious. For example, some people prefer to eat fruit and sweeter foods such as pastries for breakfast. It is best to do this only every now and again, because they do not contain a lot of nutrients. So, if you want to start your day full of energy, it’s best to try one of our Shakes with your usual piece of fruit and a good cup of coffee.

It can also be a perfect dessert after meals. But you’ll definitely love to try them as an afternoon snack. This is perhaps the time of day when we indulge the most, either because we are just finishing a long day at work or because we have been to the gym. Whatever the time, they are the perfect accompaniment throughout the day.

Wherever you choose

Just like our smoothies, our Shakes are made to be enjoyed wherever you prefer. You can find them at any of our distributors. Visit your nearest one!

Vanilla Mix, the shake that blends tradition with exclusivity

If we think of flavours or smells that remind us of moments in our lives, of summertime and our childhood, there is one that most certainly comes to mind for most of us: vanilla. With a smell and taste recognised by all, vanilla is a popular ingredient in baking and its aroma is often used in perfumes, creams, air fresheners and candles to freshen up the home with a sweet, relaxing and light scent.

Today, every corner of the world loves its flavour and aroma. But the historic origins of vanilla date back to Mexico, specifically in the Totonacapan region, which due to its climatic conditions and the type of soil, is ideal for growing vanilla. At first, they began to use it to flavour their recipes, for medicinal purposes and even as an offering.

Introducing our new Shakes

Growing it requires a lot of patience, as the flowers of vanilla orchids only bloom every 2-3 years, and the yellowish-green flowers open for only a few hours. This is why, after saffron, it is the most valuable, expensive and sought-after plant in the world because of its delicate care and harvesting. After the ripe pods are harvested, they are heated to prevent them from blossoming. They are then dried in the sun, which causes the vanilla pods to become dark, thin and leathery, but incredibly fragrant with thousands of almost microscopic black seeds. The most valuable ones have a light coating of tiny vanillin crystals that intensify the flavour and aroma.

As well as its excellent properties as a sweetener, it also has therapeutic benefits, which means it has been used in medicine as a home remedy for thousands of years:

  • It stimulates the nervous system, relieving stress and anxiety
  • It can act as a muscle relaxant, relieving inflammatory pain
  • It strengthens the immune system:vanilla boosts the body’s defences and protects the immune system.
  • Antiseptic properties:vanilla has antiseptic and analgesic properties that help relieve pain and prevent infections.

Still not convinced? What if we told you that as well as enjoying the unmistakable taste of vanilla and its properties, you could enjoy it as a refreshment and be transported to the most exotic places? Our Vanilla Mix shake gives you all that, and more.

Vanilla Mix, the shake that blends tradition with exclusivity

You’ll first be won over by its aroma, but as soon as you taste it, you’ll absolutely love its flavour. The best part is that it can be enjoyed at any time of the day: for breakfast, with a savoury snack for a delicious contrast, as a dessert after a nice meal or as an afternoon snack. No wonder that, for many, the best moment is after a long day, topping it off with pleasure in every sip.

Summer or winter, morning or evening, beach or mountain, no matter what you choose, Vanilla Mix is perfect for any situation and is loved by everyone. If you try it, you will never forget it!
