Present Our Smoothie Like a Pro
If you're going on the heavy side w/ the pea shoot microgreens, pick a sweeter apple, like honey crisp.
Play around with the amount of pea shoot microgreens until you find the flavor that excites you most. Twenty-five grams is pretty light on the pea. It'll be about a handful. Pea is pretty mild though and it's possible to use a lot more to get more of that green-smoothy flavor if that's what you're expecting.
Want to add a bit of tartness? If so, throw in a quick splash of lemon juice—maybe a 1/2 tablespoon. BAM!
Feeling fancy? Garnish with a fancy straw and a few mint or stevia leaves.
