Sweet Pea Smoothie

TGIFAF (Thank God It’s Fine Art Friday). Looking to shake up your smoothie game? I’ve got just the thing for you. Now I know this sounds a bit odd, but peas in a smoothie is absolutely delicious. They are full of protein, fiber, and those little green guys are a vitamin powerhouse. Combined with creamy coconut milk, fresh ginger, and cooling mint, it’s a flavor combination written in the stars.
