It was a smoothie heavy blender party last week, with two of our features, and five out of the six recipes linked up being delicious, superfood rich smoothies. That’s not all we had going on though, and I implore you to check out the refreshing and cooling Cherry Mint Spritzer by Almost Bananas (as well as her Apricot Juice Syrup with a fermented ingredient option).

Ally’s Party Favour: Creamy Kiwi Apple Smoothie

With avocado and banana, this smoothie is rich, creamy and filling – it’s almost a ‘thickie’! I love the satisfyingly tangy taste of kiwi, apple and lemon and enjoy making this smoothie extra, extra thick – something easily done using simple ingredients from your fruit bowl of pantry.
