Start your day off with a Spring Green Citrus Smoothie, or enjoy it later in the day for a boost of energy and vitamins. Spring is here, which for some may mean allergies, and for others it’s time to think about that summer body, but really it’s a great time to get back to fresh and bright flavors for nutrition and feeling good! This citrus green smoothie will certainly do the trick! Lemon, orange, ginger, with vanilla, sweetened with honey, and a generous helping of kale come together to wake up your taste buds and energize you!
