Smoothie OTW Link-Up - Om Nom Ally


Featured Links | Guidelines | Links + Add Your Own | Ally’s Smoothie OTW

It’s been very quiet in the blogging world and on social media this week, I’m guessing it’s because all my American friends have headed home to spend time with family on Thanksgiving. I can’t wait to hear about how you all spent your time and what delicious food you ate!

I enjoyed my first ever Thanksgiving this year, a whole bunch of my friends and I spent Thanksgiving at another friend’s house where they ended up feeding around 30 of us. No easy feat! The food was amazing, the company even more spectacular. So Happy Thanksgiving to you all and hope you’ve had a marvelous week and weekend 🙂

We had a couple of ties on the most viewed posts, so instead of 3 features, we’ve got four this week 🙂 There’s a Layered Coloured Smoothie I’m dying to make, some gorgeously named (and flavoured) Fairy Water, home-made, non-dairy Oat Milk that would go perfectly with Oatmeal Raisin Cookies and a Creamy, Dreamy Calming Smoothie for the end of a busy day.

I made three of these drinks this week and they were all fabulous, I’m going to give the layered smoothie a go for breakfast later this week – I hope it turns out as spectacularly as Girl on Greens’! A big thanks to all the bloggers who have been linking up, I’ll hope you’ll join us again this week or in the future 🙂 Thanks to all the readers who make this so fun to participate in, I hope you’re finding as many fabulous recipes to try as I am!

Raspberry Fermented Kombucha Soda

While I also drink milk and water kefir, kombucha is by far my favourite fermented beverage. While I started out brewing with green tea, rooibos is now my tea of choice for kombucha and goes amazingly well in this blended raspberry soda.

You can use store bought, unflavoured kombucha to make this soda, or brew your own as normal and proceed with the recipe after the first ferment. If you’re located in Australia and want to get your hands on a kombucha scoby or get more information about brewing send me an email or leave a comment on the page 🙂

      Yeah it doesn’t like cold weather much Marianne 🙁 This past winter one batch took 3 weeks to brew, as opposed to the one week it normally takes. Water kefir can sometimes be a bit quicker, and only takes 2 days to complete if you know anyone who might be able to give you some kefir grains.
      Thanks for linking up, it’s wonderful to hear from you again 🙂
