Joe & The Juice has gained an influencer-worthy reputation for serving up some of the most mouthwatering and health-conscious smoothies out there - but get ready to say goodbye to those long queues and save some cash...
With our handy tips and easy-to-follow recipes, you'll be whipping up your own masterpieces in no time that taste just as good!
Get your greens in 🥒
Sneaking some veggies in your smoothies is a smart way to incorporate more greens into your diet and you can always add more fruit to mask the strong green flavours.
This simple kale smoothie recipe has a delicious blend of earthy and zesty flavours to wake up your senses in the morning:
INGREDIENTS
- 2 handfuls kale
- 1/2 avocado
- 1/2 lime juice
- Large handful frozen pineapple chunks
- Medium-sized chunk ginger
- 1 tbsp cashew nuts (optional)
- 1 banana (optional)
METHOD
- Put all ingredients into the blender.
- Add a large splash of water or milk.
- Blend and add more water/milk until you have the desired consistency.
Top tip: instead of putting ice in your smoothie, freeze your fruit for that thick and frosty texture without compromising flavour.
If you want to trial a kale smoothie before you invest in the ingredients, you could always grab one of our Kale Kick smoothies in our cafés! 🥬
Satisfy your sweet tooth 🍓
Instead of reaching for the chocolate when you're in the mood for a treat, why not opt for naturally sweet fruit instead?
Sometimes the simple classics are the most reliable and one unbeatable combo has to be sweet banana and juicy strawberry. This is the perfect smoothie to make when you're in a rush and need breakfast on the go:
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1 banana
- 1 cup milk or almond milk
- 1/2 cup plain yoghurt
METHOD
- Add all ingredients to a blender.
- Blend until smooth, adding additional milk as needed.
- Leftover blended smoothie can be frozen in cubes for future use.
Top tip: avoid adding artificial sweeteners and opt for something natural like organic honey instead.
