I've been wanting to try out making green smoothies for a while now, and it was super easy with my Vitamix. This was a great combination of flavors, but next time, I think I'll add a little ice, too, because it wasn't cold at all really when I drank it. My toddler saw me drinking it and came over and drank almost half of it in one giant gulp...so I guess it was a hit with him, too! Who knew? I'm looking forward to making variations on this in the future.
