Fruity and cool, dark berry flavour with a fresh mint finish.
Mint and dark berries are a well known pairing in desserts and drinks, because the cool, aromatic herb lifts the deep, slightly earthy berry flavour. Blackberries provide fibre and vitamin C, and they colour the smoothie a deep violet. The banana brings sweetness and a smoother texture.
Use only the mint leaves and do not overdo them: a small handful is enough to be noticed without tasting like toothpaste. A refreshing glass for a summer afternoon.
Spearmint or garden mint; peppermint is sharper, so use less.
