Perfect Green Detox Smoothie Recipe
Overview
Green detox smoothie is my absolute favorite smoothie after a long weekend out with friends or after having a bit too many cheat meals. This perfect drink is a great and quick way to start off your day with some extra energy or just to have for a refreshing midday snack. As always, for the best result remember to use frozen fruits.
In case you’re looking for some extra protein gains, then I got you covered as well with the optional protein version for the detox green smoothie!
