Smoothies are possibly one of the most popular things to come out of this summer (aside from maybe rice burgers, Ben & Jerry’s SNL-themed ice cream flavors and anything with avocados), from juice and smoothie cleanses to the most satisfying after-gym snack. Grab a blender and start pureeing all the fruit in your house before the summer comes to a close and you head back to school.
