Notes
- Color: beautiful saturated red
- Texture: kind of thick, more like a puree but still a great smoothie overall.
- Taste: sweet with a salty with a spicy twist to it.
Keep the skin on the lemon only if your lemon is organically grown, otherwise remove the skin prior to adding those lemon slices into your smoothie. The skin of conventionally grown citrus fruits may have chemical residues that could harm your health. Use a small tsp when adding salt, the last thing you want is to have a salty smoothie. Another option would be to add 1/3 tsp of salt (instead of 1/2 tsp) and taste your smoothie to see how “salty” it is.
