The best thing of all is that your smoothie can be whatever you want it to be, depending on the ingredients you decide to put into it. Today, we’re bringing you one suggestion for a power smoothie that will help you get through those busy workdays.

How do you make carrot taste amazing in a smoothie? Blend it with orange juice, peaches, cardamom, and a tiny bit of dried apricots. BOOM! Delicious! You can find the full printed recipe on the blog. The link in my profile allows you to click through to the recipe to pin and save. This smoothie is a fantastic immune-boosting blend. If you've never put carrots in a smoothie before, scrub or peel them, and then chop them into small pieces for the best results. Carrots can get really mealy in a lot of conventional blenders, and so I was blown away by the performance I got from the new @KitchenAidUSA K400 Blender. This mid-range blender is designed to tackle tough ingredients like fibrous carrots. So, the motor and blade construction work with the Soft-Start feature and so you get an incredible smooth texture with carrots, apple, dates, nuts, leafy greens, and other fibrous ingredients. I'm super excited that I now have a coupon code for KitchenAid blenders until the end of the year.
