Ultimate Green Smoothie

By Casa de Suna

Published Sep 08

We’d be hard pressed to think of something better to start your day with than a healthy dose of fruits & veg via a delicious green smoothie.

This one is the perfect alternative to green juice, since blending means you keep all of the fiber that juicing removes. It’s bright, fresh, and zingy thanks to a kick of ginger. Don’t be put off by the addition of bee pollen: it’s got tons of purported health benefits and it’s easy to find at your local health food store.
