Miko's Morsels

Need a pick me up that doesn’t give you the jitters. Try these 3 energizing drinks and Smoothies. They are amazing when I’m lacking the energy needed to get through the day. I even give them to the kids. I use stevia in my drinks to cut down on my sugar intake, but feel free to replace it with your favorite sweetener or none. If the fruit is very ripe it will be sweet enough on its own.
