Tart green apple and dark blackberries give this leafy smoothie plenty of flavour. The spinach and lettuce stay in the background, adding freshness rather than a grassy taste.

Fresh and tangy, with crisp green apple, dark berry fruit and a mild leafy note; light and thin.
Green smoothies combine leafy vegetables with fruit, and the fruit choice decides whether the result tastes fresh or grassy. Tart green apple and blackberries bring enough acidity and aroma to carry the spinach and lettuce comfortably.
The colour will not be bright green: blackberries turn it an earthy olive brown, which is normal. Leafy greens add folate and fibre, blackberries vitamin C. A light, low sugar option for breakfast or a mid morning drink.
The dark blackberry pigments mix with the green of the leaves. It is normal and does not affect the taste.
