Simple smoothies made with each flavor of JOYÀ Elixir Blends.

A smoothie doesn’t need to have 20 different ingredients to be nutritious and delicious. When it's supercharged with a scoop of any Elixir Blend (because who wants a pantry full of powders?!), all you need is just a few base ingredients to pack in fibre, protein and healthy fats. A combo like this will replenish you after a workout, power you through till your next meal (if not longer)... it can really do *almost* anything. 

How is it that just one scoop of Elixir can take your smoothie to the next level, you ask? Whether it's calming cacao, energizing matcha or invigorating turmeric that you're craving, each blend is chock full of adaptogenic and functional botanicals, perfect for anytime of day and any flavor combo you’re craving. 

Keep scrolling for three simple 6-ingredient smoothies, each featuring one of our Elixir blends. Which one will you make first?
