I know!! the moment I say it is green smoothie my constantly hungry family would have hid under the bed. I had to think of ways and means to tell them it is all cool!! How do we do that?
Add that soda
There is nothing more tempting than soda. This fizzy water just makes us go crazy.
Soda is just plain carbonated water. The high-pressure introduction of carbon dioxide to water creates soda.
Having the younger people at home who believe it a sin not to have a Sodastream at home an occasional Friday soda does keep the equilibrium.
The mango and the spinach
A smoothie with mango and spinach and a squeeze of lime is obviously the best breakfast. But the green doesn’t really translate to all of my family as a part of the breakfast. never mind, I know a way around..add in the soda. Top the blitz with honey and all is well. They love it and ask for a lot more of it.I won the green smoothie game… Now you turn. will your family accept this? Let us know and tag us on your creations Instagram-@mildlyindian

This looks very interesting. Do you take raw mango or ripe one?
Glad to see you like it RAj, I have used ripe mango in this recipe. the mango that I get here is not too bright orange in colour, moreso is a bit on a pale yellow shade. Hope this helps.
Mango and spinach make this soda extra delicious and healthy. I like how you chose honey as a natural sweetner. Thanks for a great recipe.
Mairead, soda is to mask the fact that it is a spinach smoothie. The sweetner can be changed as you like.
Oh wow! This soda looks so refreshing and very tasty! My husband is definitely going to love this. Excited to make this tomorrow!
I hope he likes it, Beth, It will be lovely to hear what he thinks of it!
Love this twist on a classic green smoothie! It is sweet, refreshing and delicious!
It is a very refreshing recipe for sure and yes it is an absolute twist to the whole smoothie scene.
I love how it turns out! Will definitely making this refreshing drink again!
I am so glad to hear you like it, Jeanna.
The two ingredients that once combined can change the world. Oh wow – fantastic soda!
