Equipment Needed

NutriBullet Smoothie Making Tools
NutriBullet Smoothie Making Tools

A standard blender is all that is required to make these NutriBullet smoothies. If you are making it for just one person, we recommend using the truly amazing personal NutriBullet Ultra as it is super-quick to set up and very easy to clean.

If you are making them for more than one person, we recommend the higher-end full-sized NutriBullet Smart Touch that can process larger loads more efficiently.

For overnight storage, we recommend using a glass or BPA-free airtight container with a resealable lid.


How To Make The So Fresh and So Clean Smoothie

The Nutribullet So Fresh and So Clean smoothie is very easy to make:

  • Step 1: Place cucumbers, kale, oranges, coconut water, lemon juice, honey, Amazing Grass Greens Blend Superfood, and ice into a blender and secure the lid.
  • Step 2: Start the blender on its lowest speed and steadily ramp up to its highest speed. This will reduce wear and tear on the motor and blades, facilitate a more consistent blend, and help prevent food splatter onto the lid and sides.
  • Step 3: Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until a smooth consistency is achieved.
  • Step 4: Pour into a glass for immediate refreshment or place in the refrigerator in an airtight container to enjoy later.

Recipe Tips And Substitutions

If you don’t have frozen fruit, or simply prefer to use fresh fruit (we totally get that), we recommend adding 1/2 cup of ice to chill your smoothie and give it a pleasing icy texture.

Spinach can be substituted for the kale without significantly changing the flavor profile.

Smoothie Frequently Asked Questions

Are Nutribullet blenders easy to use?

Nutribullet blenders are designed for ease of use. With a compact design and simple mechanism, users typically just need to fill the blending cup with ingredients, twist on the blade attachment, and press or twist the cup onto the base to blend. Cleaning is also straightforward, as many parts are dishwasher safe.

How much vitamin C is in lemon juice?

Lemon juice is a rich source of vitamin C. One fluid ounce (about 30 milliliters) of lemon juice contains approximately 12 milligrams of vitamin C. This amount can vary slightly depending on the lemon’s freshness and size. To put this in perspective, the recommended daily intake of vitamin C for adults is 65 to 90 milligrams, so a few ounces of lemon juice can contribute significantly towards meeting this requirement.
