Green Smoothie 2 – The Purple Edition

Smoothie 2

Spinach leaves
Cos lettuce
Choy so
Avocado
Mixed frozen berries
Fresh squeezed orange juice
Fresh squeezed lemon juice

While I love the frozen berries, juices, and avocado, the Choy so (a smaller version of Bok Choy) was a mistake. It put an almost onion taste into the mix that stood out from the rest and masked the usually pleasant spinach undertones.

I think for additional greens, I’ll start looking into the taste influence of sprouts and broccoli.

More pause for kudos to my husband who got nearly a full glass of extra green (purple) smoothie – and drank it.
