Questions

What can I use instead of maple syrup in Sea Moss Smoothie?

The entry for Sea Moss Smoothie calls for 1 tbsp pure maple syrup (optional). In its place: Honey, measure for measure, or brown sugar dissolved in a little warm water.

How many calories are in Sea Moss Smoothie?

One serving (the recipe makes 2) is about 210 calories, with 6 g protein, 41 g carbohydrate and 6 g fat, plus 4 g fiber and 58 mg sodium. The figures are estimates computed from the ingredient list.

Can I batch Sea Moss Smoothie for a group?

Yes. As written it serves 2. Halved, the sea moss gel drops from 2 tbsp to 1 tbsp; doubled, it is 1/4 cup. Every line in this entry carries its half and double quantity, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. To make a pitcher, multiply everything and stir over ice at the end.
