The colour reminds of dried lavender bushes in the morning markets of Nice, almost a pale periwinkle with a bit of lilac. It brings me back to last years trip to Southern France, the splashes of neon colours, wicker baskets and homemade fragrances that inspire me as summer approaches. This smoothie recipe is a delicious way to start the weekend that explodes with antioxidants and sweet flavours. It reminds me of a summer’s day, a bit of heat from the ginger and freshness from the lemon juice.
