I must admit, I thoroughly enjoyed my green smoothie! While I was tempted to indulge in all the smoothies available, I decided to save the second batch for my morning commute the next day.
Great! Used a little more pineapple than what it called for but it’s delicious! 10/10
Awesome! Makes me have my veggies! Lol my son “health nut” loved it too!
Wow! This is a keeper! I didn’t have mint on hand but still tasty without the mint. Used frozen fruits so didn’t use ice cubes. Yum!!
first smoothie i have ever made. I used only lime not lemon and only one. i used mint extract. I used fresh pineapple instead of canned. It tastes fine. I like the hint of mint. I think I will make it again. the ingredients are simple. It was enough for two people – but on this Daniel diet – i think i will drink both glasses.
It was perfect I will make it again
Excellent flavor…will definitely be making this again!
it was okay, could have done without the lemon and lime myself, but that would diminish the purpose. . .
We left the mint out by accident but will definitely be doing this again soon!!
Very good. I used spearmint essential oil instead of mint leaves.
Perfect recipe! Depending on your blender you could just throw everything in and let the machine do its job.
Super good! A family favourite for sure.
Excellent smoothie. A little cumbersome to make but I’ll make it again!
Made the recipe as is and it is delicious! Not sure how much it tastes like a mojito but it is better than some of the other green smoothies I have had!
Too bitter and sour for me. For first timers I would start out with half the mint (5 leaves). You can always add more.
Is it a smoothie or a cocktail?! Really good. I added a about a tablespoon of honey as I thought it was a little bit acidic. Apart from that it is healthy, very refreshing and tasty.
Very refreshing
Was good i used coconut water instead of normal water, and forgot the lemon. But regardless of the forgotten lemon it was fantastic!
Had to sub with orange juice but other than that this is excellent just the way it is! Will definitely keep this in my favorites
I followed the recipe exactly as written and it turned out perfectly. Even my 3 year old son with whom it is a daily struggle to eat his vegetables drank a whole cup. This will become a staple in our household!
Loved this! I omitted the ice cubes because both my banana and pineapple were frozen. Since my pineapple was frozen, I didn’t have any juice from the can so I added coconut water. I used a whole orange and half the juice of both the lemon and lime. It was delicious without the need of any sweetener. Update: 07-27-17 I made this again today, I love it!
