Mango smoothies. Just slice up a mango, add 1-2 tbsp of cashew butter, 1 cup of unsweetened coconut milk and a pinch of cardamom. This drink is refreshing but also warming, great for a sunny end of winter day!

If you’ve never used cardamom much in the kitchen it’s worth a try. Its the worlds third most expensive spice, known as the queen of spice. Used to stimulate digestion especially bloating and gas, as an anti microbial, great for respiratory congestion, and is also an urinary tonic. It’s pacifying to all doshas.
