Recipe
Green ginger smoothie
Spinach, ginger and banana blended with coconut.
Ingredients
- Spinach — 1 cup
- Banana — 4¼ oz (1 firm)
- Full-fat coconut milk — ½ cup
- Water — ½ cup
- Ground flax — 1 Tbsp
- Ginger — 1 tsp, grated
- Ice
Method
- Add everything to a blender.
- Blend on high 30–45 seconds until smooth. Drink cold.
Notes
Fresh ginger root rather than powdered — the volume measured here is intentional for an anti-inflammatory dose without it becoming spicy. Spinach blends out completely; you get the nutrition with none of the flavor.
