Health Benefits

Pineapple is excellent to consume post work-out as it aids quick protein absorption, speeds up the fat-burning process and heals damaged tissues. This nutritious tropical fruit boosts immunity and curbs inflammation. Its high manganese content strengthens bones, helps food metabolisation and assists blood clotting.

The corporate fruit deliveries by Office Catering include the best quality pineapples. Order here to avoid ending up with wild pineapples that cause allergic reactions.

The extremely hydrating cucumbers help maintain blood sugar levels and healthy body weight. Lemon juice supports body cleansing and promotes liver function. The anti-bacterial and digestive properties of ginger are highly advantageous to the human body!

Ingredients

  1. Pineapple – The juicy yellow pineapple offers a sweet taste and fruity tartness. Get A-grade quality pineapples from Office Catering’s office fruit mix.
  2. Cucumber – Premium quality cucumbers have a sweet taste and crisp texture. Unlike the bitter varieties, Office Catering’s corporate fruit deliveries stock the farm-grown organic sweet ones.
  3. Lemon – The familiar sour tanginess of lemon juice compliments the pineapple taste.
  4. Protein Powder – This smoothie recipe uses the vegan Pina colada protein powder which has pineapple and coconut flavour.
  5. Ginger – It adds a warm, spicy kick to the drink. The recipe uses ginger powder for a smooth blend, but you can also use raw ginger root. Remove the skin and smash it in a mortar pastel before adding to the blender.

Tips

  • Ripe mangoes, bananas, grapes and oranges are some other fruits that pair well with pineapple. All these fruits are available to order at Office Catering’s office fruit baskets.
  • Lemon juice adds an aromatic tanginess. If unavailable, you can use orange juice.
  • Cucumbers are also included in the corporate fruit deliveries by Office Catering. Courgette is a close substitute.
  • Fresh coconut water is a nutritious replacement for water. Its sweet nutty taste makes the smoothie flavoursome.
  • You may use any choice of protein powder in the smoothie. If you don’t consume protein powder, you can incorporate healthy protein into the drink by adding hemp, chia or flaxseeds.
