Green smoothie ingredients

kale: kale is filled with nutrients but often gets a bad rap for being bitter. The key here is that we are using sweet and tropical fruits to balance out the flavors so that it is delicious!

fresh ginger: I love adding fresh ginger to a smoothie for an added “zing” as well as all of the health benefits that it brings.

oranges: the strong fresh taste of citrus-y oranges is just what this smoothie needs to offset the taste of the kale. Added bonus is the all the vitamin c!

lemon: lemon is a great way to detox and tastes so refreshing in this kale smoothie!

frozen banana: frozen bananas are a staple in smoothie recipes. They add a lovely mellow sweetness and thick texture.

frozen peaches – pair perfectly with the citrus fruits and add a bit of sweetness.

cold water – did you know you can make a smoothie without milk? There is no need for milk in this recipe!

ice – optional but a great way to make this smoothie super thick, which is my favorite way to drink them.

Through trial and error I have discovered the perfect way to make a green smoothie that is both delicious and full of good for you ingredients.

No one should have to drink something that doesn’t taste good!

This kale smoothie tastes like a tropical treat and is seriously so refreshing.

This is the ultimate immune boosting drink to help fight colds.

Filled with ginger, loads of vitamin c, lemon, and kale goodness.

To make this smoothie, you will need a high speed blender.

I use a blendtec for this recipe.

Kale especially needs a high powered blender to blend it up smoothly.

It basically tastes like a tropical smoothie.

And it’s guaranteed to make you feel like a million bucks!

Kiddo approved.

I could drink this smoothie every day and never get sick of it.

Perfect to get your family more greens, or use as a cold fighter.
