While it IS cheaper to make your own at home (I’ve done my best version of a Mint + Cacao knock-off below) when you account for the ingredients in each smoothie, it’s still an investment to make your own at home with all the necessary ingredients.īecause we don’t have a money tree in our backyard (sigh) I decided to make some cuts to other shipments we get regularly in order to make room in the budget for a monthly Daily Harvest Delivery. This time, I edited my box to include nearly exclusively Mint Cacao and Cacao + Avocado smoothies. Some of the flavors are so dang crave-worthy that I’ve been eagerly waiting for my next shipment. After thinking it over, I really loved the convenience, taste and quality of the smoothies. So, I guess the question comes down to “Would you get another box?”Īnd my answer is “yes!” but with some modifications. But, as I mentioned above, if you figure out what you do and don’t like then you can simply avoid the flavors you don’t care for. There were some flavors I flat out didn’t care for. If you eat out a lot and this replaces a meal out, it’s probably not much more expensive or less expensive than eating out, but if you’re making smoothies at home it’s definitely MORE expensive. It’s pricey – around $170 for 24 smoothies. If you’re on a budget, cost is definitely the biggest inhibiting factor. They come frozen and can stay frozen for quite some time! So you could get a box of 24 smoothies and then pause your membership and work through them over time.

Some varieties were more nutritionally akin to a snack, but the two mentioned above are definitely full meals.
The smoothies that I gravitated toward had enough nutrition to be a full meal – between 360-560 calories in each smoothie before adding in the milk. The sweetness level was nice! Nothing overly sweet and nothing artificial sweetening these smoothies.

The cup also has a lid and a place for a straw so they were great to have on hand for portable lunches and dinners when time was tight. transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Just add your liquid to the ingredients in the cup. I also liked a few of their bowls, especially the Sweet Potato Hash. My favorite smoothies were the Mint Cacao (obviously) and the Cacao and Avocado. I didn’t like every smoothie or bowl I got, but I can see how once you found your favorites you could stick with those on a regular basis. The quality of the ingredients used in their products is great and thoughtfully sourced with a wide variety of fruits and vegetables as well as other supplemental ingredients You fill a box (either monthly or weekly or in a frequency that suits you) and it comes on dry ice with your selections. If you’re not familiar with Daily Harvest, you can read all about it here, but the basic premise is that it’s a high-quality food delivery service. I have had my eye on Daily Harvest and their yummy-looking smoothies + bowls + bites for a while.
