Lemonade icy

If you like ice and you like lemonade, this is a recipe for you. 

2      Meyer lemons (peal off zest)

1/2   Banana

2       Tablespoons of agave nectar

3       Cups of ice

Start your Vitamix on 1 and slowly walk it up to high pushing ingredients into the blade with your tamper stick.  When the four pillows form in each corner on the top it's ready. Enjoyed best on the back porch in the shade with others :)

The Big AL

Consuming Dark leafy greens and celery are a great way to alkali (hence the smoothie name "big AL") your digestive system.  Give this guy a try. It tastes fresh and its an excellent way to stabilize your system.  If you would prefer to have a more bitter green like kale the swap that for the spinach and add a dime sized slice of ginger root or poker chip size of lime to mask the green bitter taste and add more nutrition. 

2 stalks of celery

2 handfuls of spinach

1   3/4" slice of fresh pineapple with core

1 medium banana 

1 cup of ice. 

Run on smoothie setting or high for 30-45 seconds for a nice smoothie juice texture.
