Here H1N1 was going around, but, fortunately, all I had was a silly cold. Still, I needed to get past it quick so I was having Theraflu every night to bust out my symptoms. Drinking a whole glass of medicine-y liquid is boring, so one look at my Vitamix and I knew …. Thus the Cold Busting Green Monster was born!

Ingredients:
6 oz. hot water with one packed Lemon-lime Theraflu, dissolved
one pear
one thumb sized piece of ginger
one giant handful spinach

Guess what – two days later…my cold was gone!
