As the winter weather doesn’t always work good for our health, we come to you with the simplest recipe of the anti-flu smoothie. It’s tasty, got lots of vitamins and even natural antibiotics (in garlic). We recommend that you drink it regularly to increase your immunity. If you already got a cold, increase the amount of garlic, ginger and honey in the smoothie.

I heard of this smoothie for the first time from my fitness trainer, it also had avocado in it, but I excluded it as it does not always work well for me. You can also try to add avocado to it.
