In my last post I talked about green shakes and trying out new shake recipes. Today I experimented with a flavor combination. The shake consisted of coconut water, 1 cup of frozen berries, about 5 bite size carrots, spinach, a handful of mandarin oranges, and a splash of juice. Originally the juice was not part of the recipe, but after tasting the shake once it was blended I decided it needed a little more flavor. Well my husband decided so I added the juice. This particular combination of flavors leaved a little something to be desired. Since neither one of us really cares for coconut water I believe that is what threw it off for us. There are some who may like this flavor combination so I do not want to discourage you from putting the ingredients in a blender and trying it first; it just wasn't for me. But, you cannot say that you don't like something until you try it first. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
