Mango Ginger Kale Green Smoothie

Nguyên liệu

• 1 cup ice ((optional))
• 2 cups packed kale ((fresh or frozen // organic when possible))
• 1 cup ripe frozen mango cubes ((organic when possible))
• 1 cup ripe frozen peaches ((organic when possible))
• 1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger
• 1 ½ - 2 lemons or limes, juiced ((1 ½ - 2 lemons yield ~1/4 cup or 60 ml juice))
• 1 ½ - 2 cups filtered water
• 1 Tbsp maple syrup ((optional // depending on sweetness of fruit))

Cách làm

1. 1

   Add ice to the blender first and crush. Then add kale, mango, peaches, ginger, lemon juice (starting with 1 lemon (2 Tbsp or 30 ml juice) and working your way up) and 1 cup water (240 ml) to start. The amount of water will depend on how many of your ingredients are frozen.

2. 2

   Blend until smooth, only adding water a little at a time as needed, and scraping down the sides/mixing as needed.

3. 3

   Once well blended, taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If too tart, add more fruit or a little maple syrup (optional). For more zing, add ginger. And for more acidity, add more lemon juice. To make it thicker/colder, add more ice. Blend as needed.

4. 4

   Divide between two serving glasses and enjoy immediately. Best when fresh, though leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
