Mobile Smoothie Bar – Why Use Them?
Mobile Smoothie bar packages are increasing popularity with events concentrating on food and health. Smoothies trend to increasing our fruit and veg intake by blending together with either ice or liquid. Smoothies are convenient in the fact that they can contain multiple quantities of a range of fruit and veg in a single portable cup. Recently, the option of prepackaged smoothies has become available in supermarkets and cafes.
A lot of these solutions use more processed ingredients such as fruit puree as their base which remove many of the nutritional benefits of the whole fruit. BBC Good Food reports how homemade smoothies contain all of the fibre and are naturally vitamin rich due to their freshness.
History of Smoothies
Smoothies have become a drink of choice for health-conscious individuals around the world, but their history can be traced back to ancient cultures. The concept of blending fruits and other ingredients into a smooth drink has roots in various culinary traditions, including those of South America and the Middle East. However, the modern version of the smoothie can be attributed to the rise of health food movements in the 20th century. Today, smoothies are not only celebrated for their refreshing flavours but also for their nutritional benefits, making them a staple in the diets of many health-conscious individuals.
