Go green with Green and Tonic!
From revitalizing juices to hearty soups and sandwiches, Green and Tonic has something to bring to every palate. All of the items they produce are 100% plant based, which equals a vegan hot spot. I will say that I am definitely not a vegan however I LOVED everything I tried. It made me feel better that everything I was eating was made with fresh and local ingredients that won’t upset my stomach. Adding to the fact that everything I tried was packed with flavor,, their products are also sustainable and better for the environment.
Along with the products they have in house, they also offer meal plans for when you want to eat a bit healthier but don’t know where to start. They offer juice cleanses along with smoothie meal plans and more. They recommend trying out these meal plans for 4 days for the best gut reset results. Some of the benefits of these meal plans include reduced bloating, higher energy levels, detox, skin detox, and improved digestion. Along with their meal plans they have pre-made meals ready to go when you need something quick!
Here’s what we tried:
Pumpkin galore!! The best part about fall is your diet being half pumpkin. Here’s all the pumpkin goods we tried:
PSL latte with cold foam and cinnamon on top! Made with plant based milk.Â
Pumpkin bread made with plant based ingredients
Pumpkin cookie with some chocolate chips and pumpkin seeds on top
Pumpkin parfait with homemade granolaÂ
And to switch things up a bit, we tried one of their salads with some quinoa, pecans, and of course pumpkin seeds!
Whether you’re a dedicated vegan or simply looking to incorporate more plant-based options into your diet, Green and Tonic promises to satisfy your cravings while leaving you feeling vibrant and refreshed.
About Green and Tonic:
Green & Tonic was established in 2012 in Darien, CT as a healthy option for those seeking balance and harmony via food.

Today, Green & Tonic’s heritage lives on by offering delicious, crave-able food designed to nourish the mind, body, and soul. It is food for all. For those on the go and those that like to take it slow. For curious eaters and comfort food seekers. For the flavor kings and health queens.
We believe good food should be healthy and healthy food should always be delicious. Our chef-designed menu offers healthy food and drink that is vibrant, powered by superfoods and uniquely crave-able.

We look forward to your visit and hope to inspire you to enjoy the simple, restorative pleasures of a plant-based, gluten-free lifestyle.
