Mint Green Smoothie

It's summer and it's hot out. This fresh, creamy smoothie is the perfect drink to take out with you on a walk or to drink when you get inside to cool down.

I'm a bit obsessed with adding mint to food and drinks when I can. The fresh taste is so satisfying and it helps to soothe a sensitive tummy. I like adding a scoop of collagen powder to this smoothie for a kick of protein. The healthy fats from the avocado help to keep me full for longer than a smoothie with just fruit would. The fresh fruits and leafy greens provide a large dose of vitamin C and a variety of minerals to nourish your body.

Let me know what you think of it!

Mint Green Smoothie

This refreshing smoothie tastes like summer in a glass. The fresh fruit and leafy greens provide a large dose of Vitamin C and powerful antioxidants.

  • 1/2 Banana

  • 1 Handful of baby spinach

  • 1/4 Avocado

  • 1 Granny Smith Apple (remove core)

  • 1 cup Unsweetened nut milk (I prefer oat or almond)

  • 1/2 Lemon, squeezed

  • 1/2 cup Cold, filtered water (Use more water if you do not want to use nut milk)

  • 1 cup Fresh mint leaves

  • 1 scoop Collagen Powder ((optional))

  1. Combine all ingredients into a blender

  2. Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes. Add more liquid to create your desired consistency. I like to add a few ice cubes to make it even more refreshing!
