My NEW favorite green smoothie that requires just 5 ingredients and is inspired by Jamba Juice! Tart and sweet thanks to kale, lemon, ginger, peaches, and mango! Super refreshing, detoxifying, and nourishing.

Recipe type: Breakfast, Smoothie
Cuisine: Vegan, Gluten Free
Serves: 2
Ingredients
- optional: 1 cup ice
- 2 cups (~ 60 g) kale, packed, fresh or frozen (organic when possible)
- 1 cup (165 g) ripe frozen mango cubes (organic when possible)
- 1 cup (150 g) ripe frozen peaches (organic when possible)
- 1 Tbsp (6 g) minced fresh ginger
- 1 1/2 - 2 lemons or limes, juiced (~1/4 cup or 60 ml)
- 1 1/2 - 2 cups (360 - 480 ml) filtered water
- optional: 1 Tbsp (15 ml) maple syrup (depending on sweetness of fruit)
Instructions
- Add ice to the blender first and crush. Then add kale, mango, peaches, ginger, lemon juice (starting with 1 lemon (2 Tbsp or 30 ml) and working your way up) and 1 cup water (240 ml) to start. The amount of water will depend on how many of your ingredients are frozen.
- Blend until smooth, only adding water a little at a time as needed, and scraping down the sides/mixing as needed.
- Once well blended, taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If too tart, add more fruit or a little maple syrup (optional). For more zing, add ginger. And for more acidity, add more lemon juice. To make it thicker/colder, add more ice. Blend as needed.
- Divide between two serving glasses and enjoy immediately. Best when fresh, though leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
