Blueberry Rocket Smoothie with Passion Fruit
Fruity and fairly light, sweet blueberry up front, tangy passion fruit in the middle and a peppery finish.
Blueberries are one of the mildest and sweetest berries, which makes them an ideal partner for bolder flavours. Here they balance the peppery bite of rocket and the perfumed acidity of passion fruit. Blueberries owe their deep colour to anthocyanins and also provide fibre and vitamin C, rocket brings vitamin K. The result is a light, fruity smoothie with a distinct savoury spice in the finish, a good choice for anyone who finds pure fruit smoothies too sweet.
It adds a light peppery note at the end; reduce it to 10 g if you are unsure.
Yes. It contains only fruit, rocket and water.
It is best fresh; the rocket flavour becomes sharper after standing.
