Thinking green for Irish reasons?
There’s a smoothie to try as we prepare for wamer weather in springtime.
Carefully consider whether or not mint should be in your smoothie before blending 10 leaves. Mint can be over-bearing. If there’s reservations, toss it out and use as garnish.
If you like Mojitos, consider this drink as its ugly stepsister.
