Apple Rosemary Breakfast Smoothie/Infusion

Ingredients:

• 1 medium apple (any variety, peeled and cored)
• 1-2 sprigs of fresh rosemary (start with 1 for subtle flavor)
• 1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt (for creaminess and protein)
• 1/2 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
• 1 tablespoon honey (optional for sweetness)
• A few ice cubes
• 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice (optional, to enhance freshness)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the ingredients:
   • Peel and core the apple, then chop it into small pieces.
   • Gently remove the rosemary leaves from the stem.
2. Blend:
   • In a blender, add the apple pieces, fresh rosemary, Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey (if using), and ice cubes.
   • Blend everything together until smooth. If the rosemary flavor is too subtle, you can add a little more.
3. Taste and adjust:
   • Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness with honey or lemon juice if needed.
4. Serve:
   • Pour into a glass and enjoy your fragrant and nutritious apple-rosemary breakfast smoothie!

Optional Infusion Variation:

If you prefer a lighter drink, you can make an infused water:

1. Core and slice the apple into thin wedges.
2. Add the apple slices and a sprig of rosemary into a pitcher of cold water.
3. Let it sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or overnight to let the flavors meld.
4. Pour into a glass, and drink it chilled as a refreshing alternative to plain water.

This combination of apple and rosemary creates a unique and aromatic experience that’s both energizing and hydrating!
