Notes
Note on key lime juice: If you can’t find fresh key limes, use bottled key lime juice (I like Nellie and Joe’s brand). You can also substitute juice from regular limes, but you may need more honey.
Make ahead: Smoothies can be prepared up to 2 days in advance. Place in an airtight container and refrigerate.
