My smoothie base is thick greek yogurt, so I added an equal quantity of chilled water with it. My green smoothie is made with green vegetables - apple, cucumber, and leafy greens - spinach. Usually, raw veggies or leafy greens have a bitter taste but I balanced this by adding sweet fruits like bananas and adding honey. Also, as I added baby spinach, it gives less bitterness and added green apple and cucumber add freshness. Lime juice cleanse the palate with the sour taste and ginger for extra pungent flavor and of course the health benefits of ginger. I added soaked basil seed on top for its benefits and its added texture.
