Two whole oranges bring so much juice and sweetness that kale loses its sharp edge. Spinach makes the colour a deep, fresh green.

Fresh and citrusy, with juicy orange and a light, green kale bitterness.
Kale is a hardy winter cabbage and a staple of northern German cooking, where it is traditionally stewed. Raw in a smoothie it tastes green and slightly bitter, and it contains vitamin C, vitamin K and fibre. Oranges are the ideal partner, as their sweetness and acidity balance the cabbage flavour. Baby spinach adds a milder green note. A refreshing glass especially in winter, when both kale and oranges are in season.
Slightly; the oranges cover most of it.
Yes, frozen kale leaves blend well and make the smoothie colder.
Yes, all ingredients are plant based.
