Recently, we introduced you to Carly Stein, the women behind Beekeeper’s Naturals, and the many benefits of propolis, a super ingredient made by bees that has antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. Since we’re always looking for recipes that are both A. quick and B. healthy, we asked Carly to share her favorite breakfast.. “If you’re looking to energize yourself with plenty of good fats and antioxidants in the morning, here’s a delish keto smoothie with propolis to get your day started off right,” says Carly.
Ginger Coconut Smoothie with Propolis
1/2 avocado (3-4 oz)
3/4 cup full fat coconut milk (canned)

1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp lemon or lime juice
1 cup crushed ice (or more for a thicker smoothie)
4 spritzes of Propolis Throat Spray
natural sugar-free sweetener, to taste (optional)
