In May we already introduced you to some of our local suppliers. Also in the area of fruit & vegetables, we have regional delicacies for you in our hotels, which we want to introduce to you of course!
So that you also know what you can do with so many fresh & CO2-friendly vitamins, we have brought you the top 3 smoothie recipes of our marketing team at the end!
Our regional fruit & vegetable suppliers
Unterthiner – fruit & vegetable supplier
From our fresh supplier Unterthiner, we purchase freshly harvested fruit and vegetables from South Tyrol and Italy. Priority is given to regional and seasonal varieties from small farms. You can test the products in all Falkensteiner Hotels in South Tyrol.
MADEMOISELLE FIGUE / Sinjorina Smokva
Eko Šinjorina Smokva is a high-quality jam, made from fresh, ecological figs – without additives. The product contains only one ingredient: fresh organic figs from our fig trees in Poljica in the hinterland of Zadar, Croatia. Enjoy the jam at the Falkensteiner Resort Punta Skala.
To realize such a project, it required steadfastness and down-to-earthiness from the two farmers Andreas and Josef. Today, the high-quality mushrooms from South Tyrol thrive in the “Hof im Thal” in a specially adapted barn under the watchful eye of the two innovative farmers. To be enjoyed in all Falkensteiner Hotels in South Tyrol
And since the best always comes at the end, here, as promised, are our top smoothie recipes:
Quick & Easy
During the summer, there’s no snack better than a refreshing watermelon. By combining it with ice cubes and lemon juice, you can whip up a refreshing smoothie in no time that will keep you deliciously cool on hot days while being low in calories.
Ingredients:
- Watermelon
- Lemon juice
- Ice cubes
- Alternatively, mix in a sour apple
- FSK 18: for an Adults-Only touch & the perfect aperitif, a shot of vodka won’t hurt.
Black Summer Smoothie
This recipe was inspired by black food cuisine, which uses mostly black or very dark foods. You will need:
- Blueberries
- Blackberries
- Black cherries
- Alternatively: deep blue grapes
- 1 tsp hazelnut puree or 1 tbsp ground hazelnuts
- Lemon juice
Pit the cherries. To further refine the flavor, it is recommended to add a squeeze of lemon juice. Then puree all ingredients into a creamy, black summer smoothie and enjoy.
Tip: If you want an extra kick of freshness, you can use lemon balm.
Green Spelt Smoothie
For this super healthy & yet somewhat unusual smoothie, you need the following:
- 1 banana
- 2 mushrooms
- 1 handful of baby spinach
- 3 heaped tablespoons cashews
- 250 ml cold water
Clean the mushrooms and cut them in half. Rinse spinach leaves briefly with cold water. Put the cashews in the blender, then add the rest of the ingredients. Pour 250ml of cold water over everything and blend for about 1 minute. Voilá!
