Bolthouse Farms Stone Fruit Smoothie - Aldi

Bolthouse Farms Stone Fruit Smoothie - Aldi

Everything in my life has been non-stop for the last two weeks, I worked, drove to Baltimore, worked almost 30 hours that weekend selling my art, drove back from Baltimore, unpacked, went right back to day job...etc. So yesterday, I was finally able to come home from my day job and get some much needed rest. How did I celebrate? I cooked an entire package of bacon, and ate 75% of it all by myself.

Not my proudest moment (who am I kidding, I'm totally proud of it), but when I woke up this morning I needed to ingest something that wasn't bacon. I figured, what's better to de-bacon-ify myself with than a healthy fruit smoothie?

Sometimes Aldi stocks Bolthouse Farms smoothies, but they are one of the elusive "unicorn" special buy items. "Unicorn" is a term I use for Aldi items because it basically means that you'll never know when it will be there, or what flavor they will have in stock. (They only carry one at a time.) I love Aldi, but that's it's one fatal flaw. You can find a product one week, fall in love with it, and it can disappear never to be seen again.

I don't go to Aldi expecting to find these smoothies, so when I do it's a real treat, and this time the shelves were stocked with my favorite, Berry Boost.

I've had a few of these Naked juice smoothies in the past, they are something I occasionally grab when I feel like I don't have enough fruit in my diet, but I've never taken the time to write a review. While shopping at Aldi I saw this Blue Machine flavor, which I've never had before, so I thought, why not review it? (This isn't a new flavor by any means, I just tend to buy the same strawberry-banana flavor over and over.)

Sadly, summer is coming to a close. I want to celebrate my last few days of freedom (before starting my final semester of college) by posting some summery foods. Nothing says summer like watermelon, so we’re kicking things off with a refreshing watermelon smoothie.
