Amarumayu Juices
A big thanks to Amarumayu who sent me their super fruit juices to try out. They carry a Buriti and Camu Camu superfruit juice, packed with vitamins and antioxidants. Both are absolutely delicious and refreshing on their own. BUT they also make a great addition to your salad dressings! For this Smoothie we are using their delicious Buriti juice.
The other reason why I love their brand, is because I fell in love with their mission. AMARUMAYU is protecting our beautiful rainforest with its biodiversity, by using sustainable harvesting practices, helping mitigate climate change and empowering indigenous communities. (I highly recommend you going on their Website and learn more about their work in the Amazon for yourself: www.amarumayu.com)
