Nothing feels as good as a power-packed green juice or shake. And whether it’s having the in on Pressed Juicery’s own killer juices or dialing down on our new favorite smoothie recipe with stevia drops, we’re always looking for the best ways to make the green shakes taste as good as they feel!

One great staple to keep on hand for perfect smoothies is liquid stevia. With our own love for the stuff, we asked one of our favorite food bloggers Juli Novotny of Pure Mamas to work up a few options using Sweet Leaf stevia drops. The completely natural liquid sweetener comes in all these insane flavors making for endless possibilities. With Juli’s penchant for all things kid-friendly, we knew that whatever she whipped up would be perfect for those with the less-than-green palettes too!
