Notes
The caloric value was calculated per serving.
When using frozen fruits, add some liquid like yogurt or milk.
For fresh fruits, you do not need extra liquid, as we need a thicker consistency.
Add 1 tablespoon of chia seed and let it sit for 10 minutes if the mixture is too liquid. Recommendation for doshas:
It is recommended to serve it slightly warm, especially in the cold season, and add some cinnamon and ginger powder to bring some heat to the digestive fire. Milk products are well tolerated.
Pitta: Sweet fruits are good for Pitta and the frozen version is well tolerated as Pitta needs foods with a cooling effect on the body.
Kapha: avoid bananas, use mango or peach instead. Choose a vegan milk or yogurt alternative, as cow milk products increase mucus production.
