Apple Apricot Smoothie
Fresh and fruity, with tart green apple, honeyed apricot and a mild green background.
Apricots are at their best from early to late summer. They have a delicate, honeyed sweetness with a gentle tartness near the skin and provide beta carotene, which the body converts into vitamin A. The green apple (think Granny Smith) adds a refreshing tartness and fibre, and baby spinach contributes mild greens with folate and vitamin K. With water as the only liquid, the smoothie stays light and clean tasting. It works well as a morning drink or as a refreshing snack on warm days.
Yes. It contains only fruit, spinach and water.
Yes, they make it thicker and colder, so you can skip ice.
It keeps in the fridge overnight, but the colour dulls; shake well before drinking.
