Wine Advice:

This smoothie is a refreshing and healthy beverage, best enjoyed on its own. However, if you’re looking for an alcoholic pairing, consider a light and fruity white wine such as a Pinot Grigio or a sparkling wine like Prosecco. The crispness and fruitiness of the wine will complement the flavors of the smoothie.
