Notes

Fridge: if you have leftover smoothie, you can store in in the fridge for 1-2 days. However, the vibrant green color fades over time and it loses some flavor. If possible, it's best to drink this smoothie right after blending.

Freezer: rather than putting leftover smoothie in the fridge, I think it tastes better if you freeze it right away. Pour leftover smoothie into an ice cube tray and freeze solid before transferring the frozen smoothie cubes to a ziplock bag. You can also pour leftover mint smoothie into popsicle molds and freeze into a fun, healthier popsicle!
