Summer Garden Crush

Prep: 10 mins

There are so many flavours to be found in an English summer garden, we’re not sure we could count them all – that said, we’ve done our best to fit as many of them in a blender as we can: we managed cucumbers, apple, raspberries and mint, plus a trickle of maple water for gluggability.

Ingredients you'll need

1 cucumber
1 apple
125g raspberries
50g baby leaf spinach
A handful of mint, leaves only
300ml maple water

From your kitchen

A few ice cubes

Step by step this way

1.
Roughly chop the cucumber and add it to your blender. Quarter the apple and slice out the core. Roughly chop the apple and add it to the blender.
2.
Tip in the raspberries. Tuck in the spinach and add the mint leaves. Pour in 300ml maple water and add a few ice cubes, then blitz for 1-2 mins till well combined.

Tip
Big is better
This smoothie uses quite a few bulky veg, so you need a big blender to make it all in one go. If you have a smaller blender you can make it in two batches, using half the ingredients each time, or blend the cucumber and apple with half the maple water and pour it into a large jug. Then blend the remaining ingredients together and stir them into the cucumber and apple mix.
