Flavor Fruits For Green Smoothies
The flavor of your green smoothie helps mask the taste of greens or other vegetables that you blend into it. For every smoothie you make, you’ll have a fruit base such as banana, pear or mango. You will then want to find a flavorful fruit that complements the base fruit, but doesn’t overpower the delicate flavor balance of a green smoothie.
The Best Flavor Fruits
Berries, especially strawberries, are excellent with any base fruit you use and will mask just about any vegetable you put in including spinach, tomato and even celery. Blueberries, raspberries, kiwi, orange and pineapple are my favorite fruits to use to flavor my smoothies.
Combining Flavors
You can use more than one fruit to flavor a smoothie. For example, you can make a “Berry Blast” smoothie by using banana for the base, then mixing in 1/2 cup blueberries and 1/2 cup raspberries. Or try a strawberry-kiwi smoothie using coconut and mango for the base!
