No fruit, no juice: this is the greenest smoothie in the collection. Avocado and coconut oil make it creamy, kale and rocket give it an earthy, peppery character.

Earthy and peppery, creamy from avocado, with a clean green finish and hardly any sweetness.
This smoothie is for experienced green drinkers who like the taste of leaves. Kale is a good source of vitamin K and vitamin C, rocket adds a mustardy bite, and avocado turns the whole mix creamy. Coconut oil adds richness and a faint coconut aroma, while water keeps the sugar content very low.
A squeeze of lime is optional but helps a lot, as acidity brightens earthy greens. It fits as a light savoury lunch or alongside a meal.
No, it is savoury and green; add apple if you want sweetness.
It adds a fuller mouthfeel and coconut aroma; a teaspoon is enough.
Yes, all ingredients are plant based.
