Cucumber Mint Smoothie Recipe You Can Make in a Blender Vlog

Smoothies

18 Sep

Hello! I am on a new mission to become a hippie and eat sunflowers and drink green juice all day. Peace.

But, I don’t have a juicer, so there’s that. #MexicanGirlProblems

can't keep calm im mexican

Luckily, I just got a new fancy blender from Blendtec and have been playing with it for a few weeks (thoughts on blender coming soon). Apparently, you don’t need a juicer to make green juice! And if you use mint from your patio garden like I did you save another dollar. Score!

      Looks refreshing, thanks for sharing the recipe. I just bought a Blendtec last week and have been making smoothies since. Favorite combo is watermelon with a hint of lemon.

      Not much of a fan of juices or smoothies – I’m the kinda gal that like to chew, eat her food, fruits. My parents planted a bird eye’s chilli shrub at home and plucks a few when cooking curries.

      All I’m drinking these days is Diet Sprite- crazy stuff. I have a juicer but it is SUCH A PAIN IN THE ASS to clean I’ve used it twice (luckily it was a wedding gift). I like the idea of being able to “juice” in a blender, though, since you can retain more fiber that way.

      Damn I’m allergic to mint 🙁 Green stuff is so yummy though! Although I’m only thinking of Shamrock shakes

      yum! i’m not a fan of coconut water on its own (which is odd because i love coconut in general), but i love the addition of cucumber and kiwi! =)

      I’m not sipping on juice right now, but my husband has definitely drank the juice kool-aid you could say. We got a juicer from our registry and I’m started to be concerned the poor boy doesn’t eat solid food anymore. It’s like a game for him.

      Smoothies are better anyway since you get all that great fiber! Juicing is not a trend I’m jumping into.

      pardon the redhead pun, but it’s also super magical to add ginger to this juice 🙂

      I have a juicer and a Vitamix blender, and I find that I use the blender way more! It’s easier to just blend everything up, and the fiber’s good for ya 😉
