Ingredients

• 200 ml cold still water
• 1 teaspoon Collagen & MSM, approximately 5 g
• Juice of ½ orange
• 1 tablespoon strawberry puree or 1 teaspoon freeze-dried strawberry powder
• 2–3 ice cubes, optional
• 1 orange slice or 1 strawberry for garnish

Step-by-step preparation

• 1. Prepare the liquid base
• Pour cold water into a shaker or a small blender. Use cold or room-temperature water, not hot liquids.
• 2. Add the orange juice
• Squeeze ½ orange and add the juice to the water. This adds freshness and balances the tonic's taste.
• 3. Prepare the strawberries
• If using fresh strawberries, mash 2–3 fruits with a fork until you get a fine puree. If using freeze-dried powder, add it directly to the shaker.
• 4. Add the Collagen & MSM
• Gradually sprinkle the powder into the liquid, stirring gently or shaking the shaker. Adding it gradually helps it disperse better.
• 5. Adjust the taste
• Add honey only if you want a sweeter drink. For a fresher version, you can keep the recipe without a sweetener.
• 6. Mix
• Shake the shaker energetically for 30–40 seconds or blend for 15–20 seconds, until the drink becomes smooth.
• 7. Serve
• Pour into a clear glass, add ice and garnish with an orange slice or a strawberry.
