These groovy smoothies are a great treat to whip up for Earth Day, and they'll taste just as delicious any day of the year! The smoothie base, which features sweet banana, nutty almond butter, and citrusy orange zest, is divided into two parts and infused with differently colored fruits: The green mixture features kiwifruit and spinach, while the blue mixture is colored with juicy blueberries. Swirl them together in an Earth-like pattern, and be sure to use a clear glass so you can see the magical colors mix together! Top with a few extra spinach leaves for a cute, earthy garnish.
