morning I may not age but I sure as hell will die early.It was NASTY.
The lemon and line just over powered the drink; does everyone use lemon and lime in their green smoothies? This was a Dr Oz drink that I got from the web.
2 cups spinach
2 cups cucumber
1 head of celery
1/2 inch or teaspoon ginger root
1 bunch parsley
2 apples
Juice of 1 lime
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Uh, no. I don't think I ever have. My book is below. I don't recall any of the recipes using lemon or lime. Well, hmmm... maybe the veggie one.

I usually use a few bananas, a handful of strawberries, couple handfuls of spinach and as much carrot juice I need for the right texture. I haven't been able to stomach a strictly green smoothie yet!

Cut it back to 1/2 lemon maybe and add a bit as you get used to it. That does seem like a lot. I do put a bit of lemon in mine but not 1/2 lemon and WHOLE lime:O

Did you blend that or juice it? I vaguely recall watching a Dr. Oz video where he juiced those ingredients. Since you're calling it a smoothie and not a juice, I'm just checking. I can imagine that would taste awful blended but refreshing juiced.
