This was pretty good. I personally didn't like the cherry peel in the smoothie as I like my smoothies to be completely smooth. But I had some cherries to use up and this was one way I could do that. I didn't use the lemon juice because I didn't want it to be tart.

This is a great smoothie! Just sweet enough. I made this for breakfast this morning and it was healthy and light, I was even able to fit it into my weight watchers points. I gave some to my 2 year old and he loved it too! Thanks I will make this all the time!! :)

Toddler DD & I loved this one, lovely & sweet but not too sweet, a definite keeper. Not keen on almond so used coconut essence instead, yum! Thanks Rita
