Parsley is more than a garnish: blended with oranges it adds a clean, green freshness. The pear softens the citrus acidity and makes the smoothie rounder.

Juicy and fresh with sweet orange, soft pear and a clean, green parsley note.
Flat-leaf parsley has a fresh, slightly peppery flavour and contains vitamin K and vitamin C. Paired with whole oranges, which bring juice, sweetness and fibre, it creates a lively citrus smoothie with a subtle green note. Half a ripe pear adds body and takes the edge off the acidity.
The colour stays orange with a slightly olive tint. The smoothie is refreshing and light and suits breakfast or the afternoon.
Yes, it contains only fruit, parsley and water.
No, with oranges it adds freshness rather than a strong herb flavour.
Yes, about 200 ml, but whole oranges give more body and fibre.
