The Perfect Smoothie To Sip, Based On Your Zodiac Sign
Smoothies are the perfect way to start the day with a bang, and tons of nutrients too. We're delving into some of our favorite smoothie recipes—and figuring out which one might be the perfect match, based on your sign. We can never underestimate the influence our star sign has on our daily lives, from details as small as our coffee order to as large as how our year will go.
Aries: Cherry-Almond Recovery Smoothie
Competitive Aries is likely to dive fully into their workout routine, so it makes sense they should be just as dedicated to their post-exercise fuel. This smoothie will support recovery thanks to the antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds in cherry juice.
