Smoothies

What kind of smoothies do you like?

I like to make my own fruit smoothies in the blender. I add bananas, blueberries, strawberries, carrots, and almond milk and ice cubes together. I don't add sugars or sweeteners because the fruit already have their own sugars.

I'm sure there are other smoothie recipes. Share them here!

I really like spinach, kale, mango and kiwi. I blend with a bit of apple juice but then thin it out with plain old water!
It's absolutely delicious

I've never tried a smoothie made with apple juice. Will definitely make that the next time I make smoothies!

I like all of my smoothies to be healthy. We don't add sugar to them. I think the natural sugars work well.

I don't pile too much apple juice in ..as I've heard it's super calorific! A little sweetness goes a long way!
I've worked out the calories for a 500ml bottle is a 100ish
Once I've blitzed it and diluted it!!
