Mint Smoothie: "Clara head"
Awake and clear into the new year?
We are going to start the New Year green! expel potential shadows of the night with a hydrating and acidulous fresh smoothie with mint. Lime and lemon have an alkalizing and refreshing effect, while mint stimulates fat metabolism, promotes blood circulation and soothes. Add plenty of cucumber, it is high in water and minerals, alkalizing and digestive. One or two sweet dates round up the taste and are a super energy supplier for the new day.

I would like to try out this highly rated smoothie. Which mixer can you recommend to me? Thank you very much for your answers. Best regards, Bea.
Thank you for your comment and your question.
You can use any mixer we offer in the shop to make "CLARA KOPF" - our delicious smoothie with mint, for example, the Primo S or the Wartmann Blender.
Best regards,

Lime, cucumber, lemon - that's exactly my taste!!! I tried the recipe yesterday and I have to say, it tasted superb. I really admire the way you've designed your website. Congratulations.
Sending lots of love,

I just tried your smoothie and it was absolutely delicious and refreshing! Thank you so much for the recipe! Instead of dates, I used dried figs and it worked perfectly.
Hey, it's great that you liked the "Clear Head"....and now let's try it with dried figs. Thanks for the inspiration. Best regards, Carla
Why only the juice of the lime? Can't the whole lime be put in the blender (without the peel)?
I noticed this in some recipes, where it says to use lemon/orange juice, etc. Can't the whole fruit be used, or what is the reason for using only the juice?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Alain
In the end, it's a matter of personal taste and preference. If you prefer a more intense flavor, you can blend the whole lime, including the peel, especially if it's organic. When creating the recipes, we experimented with different variations and shared the ones that we found most appealing in terms of taste on our blog. Our recipes are meant to inspire but not dictate. Enjoy exploring and discovering your favorite variation.
Warm regards,
