Description
This island green smoothie uses refreshing coconut water and fresh lime juice for a little tang.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups unsweetened coconut water
- 2 cups fresh spinach or kale, stem removed
- 1 banana
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1/2 lime, juiced
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.
- Best if served immediately.
Notes
If using fresh pineapple or fresh mango, use frozen bananas to have a chilled smoothie.
If you are using all fresh fruit, try adding ice cubes to make it a chilled smoothie (this may dilute the smoothie as the crushed ice melts).
If your blender doesn’t puree kale leaves very well, try adding them and the liquid first and puree, then add the fruit.
