This can be a big smoothie so you’ll need a rather big and powerful blender to mix everything smoothly. I used frozen green peas and green beans that I lightly boiled and cooled down at room temperature. For simplicity you can just use frozen green peas and frozen green beans. In case you want to use the slice of lemon with skin, make sure to use an organic lemon. Conventionally grown citrus fruits are often sprayed with pesticides and so their skin gets contaminated with chemicals.
