Mugwort Smoothie

I love mugwort, dried or fresh it does not matter. The aroma sends me into heady reverie, and I love making drinks with it, and adding it to fruit salads etc.

This evening I wanted something a little different, more a scented fruit drink, and so I went to work. Out popped this divine smoothie, giving mugwort centre stage.
