I LOVE green smoothies. Liked them right off the bat. Good tasting
green smoothies should be made with about 60% fruit and that takes
care of the 'green' taste. I only use water in my green smoothies,
don't want dairy in there with all that green. I really like
grapes, pears and apples in the green smoothies, they are natually
sweet enough and the combination with spinach and kale is really tasty
and good.
