A little masterpiece of convenience that couldn’t be easier to use: liquids first, then fruit, flip it over and blend & go!
Under the beach umbrella: peach, mint, ginger & zing
A burst of freshness with an extra kick, perfect for cooling down between a dip in the sea and a game of paddleball on the beach, or for breaking up a long car journey.
What you’ll need:
- 1 ripe peach, cut into chunks (pop it in the freezer first for an extra-refreshing touch!)
- 100 g plain or Greek yogurt
- 60 ml milk (or ice-cold water)
- Juice of half a lemon
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 4 fresh mint leaves
- A quick grating of fresh ginger
How to make it:
Pour the liquid into the cup first, then add the fruit and the remaining ingredients. Blend in short pulses until smooth and velvety. Screw on the travel lid and off you go! Summer bartender tip: garnish the rim with a slice of peach and you’ll instantly feel like you’re at a beach club.
Post-workout power: berries, banana & peanut butter
For anyone who refuses to skip a workout even when the temperature starts to rise! A super-creamy smoothie to help you recharge after giving it your all.
What you’ll need:
- 130 ml milk (or soy milk)
- 90 g 0% Greek yogurt
- 60 g frozen berries (blueberries and raspberries)
- ½ ripe banana, sliced
- 1 teaspoon peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon ground chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon honey
How to make it:
Pour the milk into the cup first, then add all that colorful fruit. Pulse quickly until you get a thick, velvety blend. Screw on the lid and take it with you: enjoy it within half an hour of your workout and give your muscles something to celebrate!
Desk duty: coffee, cocoa & an orange twist
Who says working in August has to be boring? If you’re holding the fort at the office, here’s just the boost you need to keep the inspiration flowing all afternoon.
What you’ll need:
- 40 ml espresso shot
- 90 ml cold oat milk
- 40 ml fresh orange juice, strained
- 90 g ripe banana, cut into pieces and frozen
- 6 g unsweetened cocoa powder
- 8 g maple syrup
- Grated zest of 1 orange
- A pinch of fine salt
- A drop of vanilla extract
How to make it:
Stir the cocoa into the hot coffee along with the maple syrup, salt and vanilla to create a deliciously rich, creamy base. Let it cool for a moment, then pour the oat milk, orange juice and coffee mixture into the blender cup. Add the orange zest, followed by the frozen banana. Now fire up the Girmi vortex! Prefer it thicker or thinner? Add a little extra banana or a splash of milk and blend again for a few seconds. Finish with a strip of orange zest on top and turn your work break into something special.
