I had a 4 fruit smoothie from java city the other day and it was exceptionally good. This got me thinking that it would probably be pretty easy to make my own smoothies but I don’t have fresh fruit in my apartment! I don’t want alcoholic smoothies which is what keeps coming up when I search! So what is a good smoothie recipe that isn’t to expensive?
What is a good and inexpensive fruit smoothie recipe?
