Creamy and mildly sweet, with a clear, peppery rocket note in the finish.
Rocket, also known as arugula, has a peppery, mustard-like flavour that gives green smoothies more character than spinach alone. Ripe papaya is sweet and very soft with a slightly musky aroma, and it contains vitamin C. Half an avocado makes the texture velvety and adds mostly unsaturated fats, so the glass is quite filling. A good green smoothie for breakfast or lunch if you like a little bite.
Not really, but rocket gives a noticeable peppery bite.
Yes, keep it covered in the fridge and stir well before drinking; it tastes freshest right after blending.
