cherry + lemon green drink

{ cherry + lemon green drink }

THE RECIPE:

• 3 stalks of kale
• 1/2 cucumber, sliced {peel on or off}
• 1 cup cherries, pits removed
• Juice of 2 lemons {or to taste}
• 1 cup water

{makes 2 pint sized drinks}

toss all ingredients into the blender & blend until you reach your desired consistency

*put frozen ingredients in first & layer the kale between the other ingredients -- this helps the blending process

{how pretty are the colors?!}

THE REVIEW:

{from josh} First sip was a bit sour, but as I kept drinking it became a bright and fruity taste.  Delicious!

{from amanda} I have to agree with my husband on this one- sour & tart! This drink also has a more textured consistency than the others. Tasty though!
