Have you eaten too many cider mill donuts, pumpkin spice-flavored things, or miniature Halloween candies that you swore you bought for the neighborhood kids? Try our detox smoothie - it’s tasty and will make you feel good from the inside out. Chef's tip: ripen hard avocados in 2-3 days by leaving them on your counter in a tightly closed paper bag. Add a banana, apple, or tomato to the bag to ripen even faster.
In Your Box (serves 2)
- 8 fl. oz. Apple Cider
- 1 Avocado
- 2 oz. Kale
- 4 Parsley Sprigs
- 1 fl. oz. Breakfast Syrup
Due to our just-in-time sourcing model, we may have to send you a substitute ingredient. Not to worry! We make sure every ingredient sent to you meets our high quality standards. We’ll keep you informed should a switch occur, so please check the ingredient labels in your meal bag.

1 Prepare the Ingredients
Thoroughly rinse produce and pat dry. (If you have a good blender, you don't need to stem the kale or parsley). Otherwise, stem kale and coarsely chop leaves. Stem parsley, reserving a few leaves for garnish. Halve and pit avocado. Scoop out flesh with a spoon.
-
2 Blend the Ingredients
Add all ingredients (including kale and parsley stems, if you have a good blender), except for reserved parsley leaves, to blender. Add 2 cups of ice and 1 cup of water. Blend 3-4 minutes or until smooth.
