Tangy Carrot Kale Smoothie
A splash of tang makes smoothies especially refreshing. Seasoned rice vinegar does the trick. So next time you search for that lemon or lime to add a kick to your smoothie, reach for Nakano instead. And be sure to keep a stash of frozen, ripe bananas on hand to add creamy flavor along with that tangy splash.

1-1/2 cups carrot juice
1 Tbsp. NAKANO Seasoned Rice Vinegar – Citrus
Directions
Rinse kale thoroughly before tearing. Combine ingredients in blender container. Cover and blend on low speed at first, then high speed until smooth.

Variation: Add one small, pitted nectarine.
