Strawberry-Rhubarb Healing Smoothie

Strawberry and rhubarb, anyone? Yes, please! Rhubarb contains antioxidants, including lycopene and anthocyanins, which have been known to help fight cancer. It also contains a healthy amount of vitamin K, which helps your blood clot when needed and protects your bones. But one of the great benefits of rhubarb is its powerful astringency and ability to aid in cleansing and detoxification.

2 stalks rhubarb

1 cup frozen strawberries, stems removed

2 cups green tea, cooled

2 tablespoons raw honey, optional
