A wellness reset is about flooding your body with nutrients, not leaving it wanting. While our cold-pressed juices deliver concentrated vitamins and minerals to support your system, we believe in honouring your hunger cues. If your body is asking for something more substantial, there are plenty of whole-food snacks that align beautifully with your reset goals. Here are some nutrient-dense, easily digestible options to sustain you through your wellness journey.
Hydrating & Revitalising Drinks
Pineapple Ginger Tonic
A tropical, enzyme-rich drink that aids digestion and provides a natural energy lift.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
- 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled
- 500ml filtered water or coconut water
- Juice of 1/2 lime
- Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Blend pineapple, ginger, and water until smooth. Strain if you prefer a smoother texture, or enjoy as is for extra fibre. Stir in fresh lime juice and serve over ice with mint leaves. The bromelain in pineapple supports digestion while ginger adds a warming, anti-inflammatory boost.
