This is a green smoothie for people who actually like greens. Three kinds of leaves give it a deep colour and a peppery edge, and a whole red apple keeps it drinkable.
15 g

15 g
rocket
1 leaves
kale stalk removed
1
red apple cored
5 oz
water
Garnish: No garnish · Ice: Served up, no ice
Fresh and green with peppery rocket, earthy kale and a crisp, sweet apple finish.
Spinach is mild, rocket peppery and kale robust and slightly bitter, so together they give a layered green flavour. A sweet red apple is the only fruit, which makes this one of the less sweet smoothies in our collection.
Leafy greens are known to provide vitamin K, folate and fibre. Blend thoroughly so the kale becomes completely smooth. The smoothie suits a light breakfast or a green break at lunchtime.
Slightly, from the rocket and kale. A sweet apple variety such as Gala helps.
It is best fresh; after a few hours the colour dulls and the taste turns more bitter.
Yes, all ingredients are plant based.
