CLOSED...Tropical Traditions Antioxidant Omega 3 Greens Review and Giveaway

If you are a regular reader of Marlie and Me, then you already know that I have been trying to get my sweet, little girl to drink green smoothies from the time she could hold a sippy cup. I would lovingly blend all sorts of fruit, leafy greens and coconut milk concoctions only to have Marlie spit it out.

I was frustrated, but not ready to give up. I requested the Antioxidant Omega 3 Greens in Berry flavor for my next Tropical Traditions product review in hopes that this would spark her love of green smoothies. And, I was right!

I mixed a scoop of the vibrantly-colored powder with 8 ounces of coconut milk and poured some in Marlie's cup. Then I handed it to her and held my breath.

I watched hopefully, but also with a little doubt. She has a habit of dumping the contents of her cup onto the floor when she is not feeling it. Imagine my glee when she swallowed her first sip and then continued to drink the green smoothie. Look at that green goodness mustache!

What doesn't surprise me is how delicious this drink tastes. It is naturally sweetened with Stevia and berry flavors and also low in calories. The directions say to mix the powder in water, but I recommend you put it in a blender with the milk of your choice for a richer, smoother drink. Not only does Tropical Traditions Antioxidant Omega 3 Greens taste fantastic, but it is also packed with nutrients. A powerful blend of antioxidants, vitamins , minerals, enzymes, and probiotics "supports nutrition, digestion, circulation & immunity."

Marlie and Me now enjoy a green smoothie almost everyday with Tropical Traditions Antioxidant Omega 3 Greens. It is the perfect supplement for a well-balanced diet.
