The cucumber and buttermilk smoothie is a wonderful drink to drink first thing in the morning! It is extremely light, nourishing, and happens to be great for your gut health because of the buttermilk, which contains loads of healthy bacteria.

In Morocco, people love buttermilk! It is the official drink to have alongside their Friday couscous, but they also love to use it in sweet smoothies with fruits including: apples, strawberries, avocados, or bananas. Buttermilk is a versatile ingredient, and it can be used instead of milk or yogurt.
