2 cuppacked kale ((fresh or frozen // organic when possible))
1 cupripe frozen mango cubes ((organic when possible))
1 cupripe frozen peaches ((organic when possible))
1 tbspminced fresh ginger

—1 ½ - 2 lemons or limes, juiced ((1 ½ - 2 lemons yield ~1/4 cup or 60 ml juice))

Steps

1
Add ice to the blender first and crush. Then add kale, mango, peaches, ginger, lemon juice (starting with 1 lemon (2 Tbsp or 30 ml juice) and working your way up) and 1 cup water (240 ml) to start. The amount of water will depend on how many of your ingredients are frozen.
2
Blend until smooth, only adding water a little at a time as needed, and scraping down the sides/mixing as needed.
3
Once well blended, taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If too tart, add more fruit or a little maple syrup (optional). For more zing, add ginger. And for more acidity, add more lemon juice. To make it thicker/colder, add more ice. Blend as needed.
4
Divide between two serving glasses and enjoy immediately. Best when fresh, though leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
