    Makes: About 3-1/2 cups for 2, 1-3/4-cup servings ea.
    Total Time: 10 minutes

    This refreshing smoothie is made with cucumber and kiwi and gets a kick from ginger-flavored kombucha and fresh cilantro.

    1 small cucumber, chopped
    2 ripe kiwis, peeled
    1 cup ginger-flavored kombucha (see Tip)
    1/2 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
    2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves
    6 ice cubes

    Combine cucumber, kiwis, kombucha, yogurt, cilantro and ice cubes in blender; blend

    Tip: Look for kombucha tea near other refrigerated teas in natural foods stores and well-stocked supermarkets. Kombucha is available in many different flavors—for this smoothie we like the taste of ginger kombucha the best.
