The secret to making this smoothie great is to use sweet prunes. Use locally grown prunes that are dark in color and have a rather soft texture. Don't be shy and test them, making sure they aren't sour. Make sure to remove the skin in case your grapefruit is not organically grown. This is because conventionally grown grapefruits may have traces of pesticides in the skin.
