Finding herself the designated bartender, Pepper Potts rushes down to the kitchenette to whip up some smoothies for the Avengers.

-Warrior Tonic-

Nothing gives the Warrior King as much satisfaction than hunting down threats to his elusive kingdom, but to do just that, he derives his energy from this very decoction. Tastes almost as good as the heart-shaped herb too.

1-2 Tbsp maca powder
1 scoop of your favorite vanilla protein powder
2 Tbsp chia seeds
1 organic ripe banana
1 Tbsp coconut oil
1 Tbsp lucuma powder (natural sweetener)
1-2 Tbsp cacao nibs

BLEND all ingredients.

-Sweet Spirit-

Containing a mega-healing detox agent, the algae spirulina, we imagine this decoction to be just as sweet, as dark and yet as powerful as the Queen of Chaos herself.

Serves 1-2

½ banana
½ cup blueberries
¼ avocado
½ cup almond milk
1 tsp spirulina
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (hemp, pumpkin or pea works great!)
pure water

BLEND all ingredients.
