Here are our top tips and tricks to create the smoothest, creamiest and thickest smoothie bowl with your fave Evive smoothies.

1. We love the unique blender-free aspect of our smoothie cubes, but sometimes, you need to get that blender out. 
2. Blend your cubes when still frozen.
3. Reduce the amount of liquid you use: start with just a splash and adjust as you go. You could also completely swap liquid for a plant-based yogurt instead!
4. Add frozen fruits such as frozen mangoes or berries.
5. Add ice cubes or frozen coconut milk cubes.
6. Add creamy ingredients to the mix: bananas and avocados work wonders.

Simply transfer in a bowl and get creative by adding all your fave toppings!

With the team in place today, the opportunities to catch shooting star opportunities are less frequent, but my father remains on the lookout. He sends me all the articles that can impact Evive – big or small.

He shared an article with me last April that started a big project at Evive. A new company from Asbestos launched the world’s first hemp fiber insulation. The idea of ​​creating a compostable shipping box was born.

I visited Asbestos for the first time in my life last Fall, and the Evive team and our new partners started the research and development to integrate this unique insulator into our shipping boxes. It wasn’t a small feat since our requirements vary depending on the season, and we have to deliver frozen products all the way to Vancouver!

A few months later, we’re officially launching this compostable insulator box this week, and I’m so happy to bring to view an insulator that you can simply put in your garden. Like a banana peel, it’s an envelope for your smoothies that will quickly return to nature.

We’re proud to work with a local company from Asbestos and revitalize its economy in our own way.

More than ever, forming local partnerships and buying local is our duty.

DRINK 24 SMOOTHIES & EVIVE WILL PLANT A TREE ?

We only get one Mother Earth. Unfortunately, we don’t get a second chance to improve our planet. However, by being mindful of our everyday decisions, we can slowly repair or make ‘compensations’ for the negative effects of harmful emissions. This is what Compensation CO2 Quebec based its company mission of off!

Let’s Plant The First Evive Forest!

Evive Plant A Tree was created to celebrate Evive’s 4 year anniversary. We want to give back to the planet. Therefore, a collaboration with Compensation CO2 Quebec was necessary! The program offered by Compensation CO2 Quebec allows companies to offset all or parts of their GHG emissions. Through this initiative of tree planting, Evive is committed to rebuilding a forest in an effort to reduce harmful emissions in our atmosphere.

More About Compensation CO2 Quebec

Compensation CO2 Quebec organizes reforestation projects that allow the creation of new forests. These new forests are located in southern Quebec. With these reforestation projects, it is possible to fully or partially offset harmful fossil fuel emissions. Thus, your participation in the creation of new forests will capture the emissions we want to offset and reduce the impact of future climate change!

We hope you’ll decide to help us achieve our goal of becoming a carbon-neutral company by 2023. We’ve already made strides with our packaging that’s 100% recyclable and made fully of recycled materials, but we know there’s more work to do. Make a sustainable purchase decision by participating in Evive Plant A Tree.
