Introduction
The best way to start your day with a filling detox drink and clean energy. You need to add about 2 cups of liquid. I use mint green tea as it adds a nice flavour to the smoothie. But you can use water or coconut water if you prefer. Also, I add 1 avocado for good fat, but not everyone likes the texture of avocado in a smoothie so I did not include this in the basic recipe. This makes about 7 servings of about 300ml each. I make a batch at the beginning of the week for my husband and it lasts about 3 days. Enjoy!

Ingredients
-
1 fruit without seeds Lemons
1 fruit (2" dia) Limes
2.50 cup slices Cucumber (with peel)
4 tsp Ginger Root
1 cup Parsley
1 cup cilantro (fresh)
225 gram Kirkland Frozen Pineapple Chunks

2 serving Bigelow Green Tea with Mint

Directions
Peel the lemon, lime and ginger. Core the apples.
Wash all the fruits and vegetables and chop them.
Place all ingredients in a high speed, large capacity blender (2L), starting with the frozen/ hard fruits and veggies.
For the spirulina/chlorella, find a powder form and use 2-3 teaspoons according to taste (it is strong).

If you do not have a very large blender, cut the recipe in half or make two smaller batches.
