Why Straspberry?
Well my little sister inspired me to
shorten the name of the detox. Instead of ‘the spirulina-strawberry- raspberry
& mint detox smoothie,’ I decided to shorten it to ‘the spirulina &
straspberry-mint detox smoothie’ because both the strawberry and raspberry are
berries that belong to the same family.
