Sweet pear meets tart green apple in a smoothie that tastes like biting into fresh fruit. Light, crisp and pleasantly balanced between sweet and sour.
1
pear ripe, cored
½
green apple cored, skin on
5 oz
water
Garnish: No garnish · Ice: Served up, no ice
Crisp and juicy, with sweet pear balanced by tart green apple.
Pear and apple are close relatives and blend together naturally. The ripe pear brings sweetness and a soft texture, the green apple adds crispness and acidity, which keeps the drink from tasting flat. Blending both with their skin adds fibre and body.
The smoothie is vegan, light and easy to make with fruit available all year. It is a good glass for breakfast or as a fresh snack in the afternoon.
Yes, it contains only fruit and water.
No, a good blender handles the skins, which add fibre.
Yes, but the smoothie will be tarter and less creamy.
