Why We Love It

This smoothie is great for introducing the idea of hidden veg smoothies to kids! Get over your kids initial rejection of anything green by reminding them of Green milkshakes on St Patrick's Day.

Kale is also extremely high in vitamin C, an antioxidant that has many important roles in the body. A single cup of raw kale actually contains more vitamin C than an orange!

Ginger is commonly used to treat various types of "stomach problems," including motion sickness, morning sickness, colic, upset stomach, gas, diarrhea and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
