Green smoothies are packed with goodness and vitamins, but tend to taste like fresh cut lawn sometimes. I want to actually enjoy my smoothies, green or not, so I take every measure to make mine as delicious as possible.

One of the most important things when making a smoothie is ice. I despise warm smoothies! I also despise faulty blenders that don't crush ice properly, so if you are a smoothie lover, spend the extra coin and get a good one. I have a Vitamix, which I LIVE for!

For this tall number, I used the following all organic ingredients:

  • Handful of spinach
  • Half a handful of kale
  • Tiny piece of fresh ginger
  • Banana
  • Drop of vanilla by Frontier Co-Op
  • Almond butter by MaraNatha Nut Butters
  • Pea protein by Design for Health
  • Acacia fiber
  • Maca by Navitas Organics
  • Ice
