Light, cool and juicy with sweet melon, crisp apple and a clear mint finish.
This is one of the most refreshing combinations for a hot day. Honeydew melon provides a lot of juice and a honey-like sweetness, a crisp red apple adds a fresh, slightly tart note and some fibre when you leave the skin on, and mint brings its cooling menthol aroma. The colour stays a delicate pale green.
Without dairy or banana the smoothie is light and thirst-quenching, ideal as an afternoon refresher or after exercise in summer.
