Keep things simple with this easy ABC Smoothie recipe!
Instructions
- Add apple, then ice, water, carrot, banana, and orange to pitcher of high-speed electric blender (one suitable for crushing ice and handling firm textures).
- Blend on high (or use “smoothie” option, if applicable) for approximately 1 minute. (If necessary, stop machine intermittently to scrape down sides or press ingredients down to remove any air pockets that might impede blending.)
- Pour into glasses and serve immediately.
Note:
- If you want to go “green,” add baby spinach with other ingredients and blend, as directed. Or transfer half of ABC smoothie to a pitcher, then add spinach to remaining smoothie mix in blender; blend as directed.
- To serve, fill glasses halfway with green smoothie, then add ABC smoothie to top for a bit of a layered look.
