π€ Dark Smoothies: Activated Charcoal, Black Sesame & Forbidden Rice Energy Bowls
Youβve heard of green juice. Youβve seen the pink smoothies. But this summer, weβre diving into something deeper, moodier, and totally irresistible: Dark Smoothies.
Packed with nutrient-dense ingredients like activated charcoal, black sesame, and forbidden rice, these bowls bring serious drama to your morning routine β and not just because they look like something Maleficent would eat post-workout.
