Cool, minty and crisp, with tangy kiwi and a mild green base; light and not very sweet.
Peppermint tea is a simple way to bring mint flavour into a smoothie, and it is naturally caffeine free. Chilled, it pairs well with cucumber, which adds freshness and volume without much sugar.
Lamb's lettuce provides a mild green base and kiwi adds acidity and vitamin C. With no banana or dairy, this is one of the lightest smoothies in the collection, well suited to hot afternoons.
No, peppermint tea is naturally caffeine free.
Only slightly. It is a light, fresh smoothie; add grapes or honey if you prefer more sweetness.
