About this smoothie

Kiwi and apple are an easy everyday combination: the apple supplies juice and mild sweetness, the kiwi a bright tang and a speckled green colour. Kiwis are known for vitamin C, apples for fibre, most of it in the peel, which you can leave on.

With coconut water as the base, this is a thirst quencher rather than a meal. It suits a morning start, a school break or a warm afternoon.

Bartender tips

  • Blend kiwi only briefly to avoid bitterness from the seeds.
  • A handful of ice cubes turns it into a slushy cooler.

Variations

Green boost
Add 20 g baby spinach for colour without changing the taste much.
