Earthsprout Approved + Golden Detox Drink (#GDD)
T.E.A
-Totally Earthsprout Approved-
Hiya! Welcome caring cuties to the new and improved site á la Earthsprout.
Boy what a journey life is, aint it not? In a little more than a year I have moved to Andalusia, lived in the sun 100% aligned with the garden and then moved back to Sweden and my roots. (And this time I know that I´m actually staying!) Earthsprout has grown in a pace that I can only describe as when Fabian rushes of to have a running competition with a dog or something. And yes, that is FAST.

Anyhow, I invite you to click around like a crazy person on this new site. Read some old posts (though I have only included those that are no older then a year), learn fun and fab things about my journey under the tab ”Elenore”, get to know what my company and work is all about under the tab ”Earthsprout”, pin some recipes but above all: Sign up for the Greenylicious newsletter and get a free copy of the Basic Bible á la Earthsprout. You do not want to miss out on that treat I´m telling ya!
I´m not really sure what to say except that I´m so so grateful to be able to share this Earthsprouty love with you all! And with that said, let me present the second list of Totally Earthsprout Approved things that have in some way touched my heart or/and made me giggle. Oh, and I´ll share the recipe of my morning routine, the golden detox drink as well!

Totally Earthsprout Approved
- The time has come for wild foraging and I´m dancing around the forests, collecting nettle, dandelion, the first edible flowers and other ”weeds”. Yummie says my tummy and who says no to free, organic, loving greens?!
- Big thanks to Golubka and Green Kitchen Stories for wanting me to guest post on their amazing & stunning sites. Still blissing out over that fact!
- I´m a part of this tremendously great project held in the south of Skåne for women undergoing some form of cancer treatment. Playing with the healing powers of tasty raw foods! Today it´s Pizza day!
- I´m reading the Kryon books at the moment and loving the way I remember that we are our own best teachers by being in tuned with ourselves. Magic is all around, fabulous!
- I have always thought that www.Rawfoodrecipes.com was the only really high quality collection of raw recipes. Now I´m a featured chef! Wohoo!
- I have come to the conclusion that it´s always best to let Fabian make the Raw banana ice cream for us. Then I´m not really aware of how much of the sweet freezed stash he actually takes! Ah blissed and yummy ignorance..

- If you have not been over at The First Mess, you should most definetly go there now. I´m having a spring fling with all of Lauras recipes! Like these ice cream cookies or this green goddess pizza. A true gem in the world of healthy and super inspiring blogs.
- Are you living in Sweden or ever in Malmö, then visit the pride of the city, Raw food House. I went there a few days ago for a green glistening juice and a full moon crafted raw chocolate bliss ball, packed with superfoods and full moon grace.
- And last but not least, THE GREENYLICIOUS BASIC BIBLE! A love list of 21 things that are the roots and heart of both me and Earthsprout. Sign up for the powerful, nutty, tastylicious and gorgeous newsletter just here to the right and get your own copy of the Basic Bible to put on your fridge! Superhero Adventure!

Golden Detox Drink
I posted a picture on a cup of this drink on facebook a while a go and got a ton of questions, so I thought I share the ”recipe” here. This is what I drink upon rising, come rain come shine I try to make this each and every day. When I do, my day starts off right and it seems like everything just falls into place. Turmeric and its major active ingredient curcumin are among the top most clinically studied spices and herbs today with many many positive effects on our bodys. The chili, turmeric, ginger and lemon all kicks in to both strengthen and awaken your digestive & immune system, the heart, skin etc etc etc. This drink is a real anti-inflammatory and cleansing one and when you start incorporating this routine in your life you will notice great effects from it for sure!
- 2 cup hot water
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric
- 1/2 small tsp powdered ginger
- 5 drops Stevia concentrate
- Pinch of cayenne
- Juice from 1/2 small organic lemon
Bring the water to a boil and while letting it heat up, put the rest of the ingredients in your largest favorite tea cup. Then open the window or if you live on the countryside, the door and soak up some fresh air while drinking this Golden drink.
Finalmente: I would love it if you come over to Facebook and Twitter to tell me if there is anything you would like me to add/improve on this new site! You are the ones I wish feel loved, hugged and inspired when clicking around here.
Bliss and Greens!
Elenore

Just sipping your gorgeous detox drink, delicious.
I was wondering what camera you are using to take such inspiring pictures?
Thanks

25 april, 2012Hi Mark!
How great to hear! I love it! I´m using a Nikon D90 but we all know it has little to do with the camera and a lot to do with the feeling and intention behind it! Good luck my friend!

25 april, 2012Your new cyber home is so lovely that even the blue tits are moving in, eh? ;) Congratulations!
Your guest post at GKS looks postively astounding. Where do you get hold of organic pistachios, though? Alas, they are as beautiful as they are expensive. Even so, I want to get my hands on them.
Peace, love and pistachios

30 april, 2012I have been a quiet follower but i wanted to write and tell you how lovely your new site is and how much i appreciate all the information i get here, o have tried many of your recipes and i have always love them.
i would like to try this morning ritual of yours, it will be a week before i can get stevia do to my destination but i have everything else, can i replaced it now as i am eager to start it today with anything else?
thank you again elenor.
ElenoreEarth
30 april, 2012Hi Nadia!
Wow, I had no idea that you were one of the marvelous Earthsproutlings! Makes me so happy!
How great that you´ll incorporate the golden detox drink – it´s a gem – You can always make the drink without stevia but then i recommend you take a little bit less Turmeric and Ginger!
Good luck and see you around!

6 maj, 2012Hi Elenore,
What a great website – lovely yet earthy (as if these two were opposites..!), so very much inspiring!
I have a question regarding the detox drink, sorry in advance if this gets lengthy!..
I have been drinking lemon water for a while now and really love what it does to the body as well as the skin! But suddenly, my routine felt too sour in the morning and I started drinking lemon water during the day. Unfortunately, I recently started to have acne (and I’m not a teenager any more, so go figure how annoying that is!) – and I’m a little weary to use cayenne and turmeric. Should I still go for your recipe? And should I start to go for the morning pinch again or keep up the during-the-day-routine?
Thank you so much in advance! :-)

7 maj, 2012Hi Anna!
Yes, it´s wierd how we are trained to think of eartht as something dull.. So THANK you for your words! I´m so glad that you can sense my intention towards this space.
As for your Q.. I think that if your body said no to the sourness it´s good that you took a break. That can be all it takes sometimes to get back on track. I think you should go ahead and order the Stevia concentrate (SO sweet) since it makes all the difference in this recipe! This drink in the morning surely has the capacity to clear up your skin again, love!
Good luck and great to hear from you!

30 maj, 2012This looks fab. I have major issues with foot cramps and have heard that turmeric is great for that, so I will be heading out to the store to pick up the stevia.
One question, I always have a ton of fresh ginger on hand, do you think I could grate it or just drop a knob in rather than use ground ginger?
I’m new to the site but love it so far. Best of luck!
ElenoreEarth
30 maj, 2012Hi Tess!
For sure! You can use fresh ginger! Grate it and squeeze out the juice into your cup of golden detox!
Love to have you here, honey!

2 juni, 2012i’ve been making something similar to this(but never thought to add cayenne– great idea!), except that i use apple cider vinegar & honey in place of the lemon & stevia. i drink it hot in the morning and cold in the afternoon (sometimes with seltzer instead of flat water– so refreshing!). it’s the perfect pick-me-up!
ElenoreEarth
3 juni, 2012M-mm yum! I so agree! PERFECT!

12 augusti, 2012Hello! I just came upon your website, and I love, love, love what you’re doing! Thank you so much for sharing your valuable knowledge on these natural, calming foods for the soul. I love how cheerful and optimistic your posts are too, I feel like going away to the countryside now! :)
Quick question about this detox drink- I have never had Stevia and am yet to get my hands on some. In the meanwhile, can I substitute it with honey?
Thanks in advance!
ElenoreEarth
15 augusti, 2012Oh.My.Word! Yes! Off with you to the countryside. Go foraging and we´ll probably meet in the woods;)
You can absolutely substitute with honey but the GDD works best with stevia since its extreme sweetness really balance the bitter turmeric taste.
Great to have you here, Sarmishta!
