But I know what you really want to know, does it sting you??  Stinging Nettles do in fact sting, so you cannot touch them with your bare hands.  Not to worry though, we’ll handle them for you and once they are blended up with mangos, bananas, lime, ginger and apple juice, not only will they absolutely not sting you, but they’ll refresh you and energize you and make you stronger than popeye!

Nettle smoothies on special at Zen Zero til the Nettle season is over (that’s right they’re locally grown too!)
