I was reading one of Storm and Jinjees e-books about how to get kids to enjoy a raw food diet. I was surprised to read that a couple of their kids dont like green smoothies. I was sure that all kids would have to love these deliscious beverages!?

Anyways, the other day when I made a green smoothies and put beetroot in last it looked fantastic and like a 'Toffee Apple' drink (and tasted great of course!). I thought that maybe making multicoloured smoothies might make them more popular with kids?

I made another today and here is a pic (not sure if it will work but I'll give it a go)...



I also remebered that when you put a beetroot in your green smoothies then they turn a beautiful shimmering velvet red colour. So if kids have been programmed to be 'anti-green' then this might be a good solution.

For a green smoothie revolution!

Perilla.

I think the green on red is so beautiful too!

LOL Alice...nice to see my kids aren't the only ones who "don't do smoothies" ....arghhhhhhhhh!!!   But...all I can do is keep offering now & again and hope one day it "clicks"...

I say get them into it as young as possible! My 9 month old just luuurves my green smoothies and whenever he sees me with them makes much noise till I share with him! He also loves smoothies without greens and thinks mango/young coconut custard is delicious. I hope he stays this way.
