Ingredients You Need

Here are the simple ingredients that you need for this tropical spinach smoothie along with some substitution options!

• Tropical blend frozen fruit- a tropical fruit blend is both delicious and helps to cover the taste of spinach in any smoothie! Our tropical blend had mango, pineapple, banana & peaches. Feel free to use your favorite fruit blend or freeze fresh fruit for later!
• Fresh spinach- We pack 2 cups of fresh spinach into this smoothie! Feel free to use 10oz. of frozen spinach in your smoothie. However, we prefer fresh spinach!
• Plain Greek yogurt– the Greek yogurt in this recipe adds both protein and a delicious tart flavor to the spinach smoothie! You can use any type of yogurt that you would like!
• Orange juice- you need some kind of liquid to blend up with your smoothie. Orange juice adds a tartness and compliments the tropical flavors of this smoothie. If you don’t have orange juice, use almond milk (or your favorite milk).

What Type of Blender Works Best?

Before you blend everything together, be sure that you have a high speed blender. Why? Because a high speed blender can really break down all ingredients and create a thick and creamy consistency!

You know you have a high powered blender if all of your ingredients blend well together and there aren’t a ton of spinach fragments in your smoothie.

How to Make a Spinach Smoothie

1. Place all ingredients in your smoothie! We like to be sure that the liquid is on the bottom of the blender!
2. Blend everything together on high. You may need to stir everything together a few times if you don’t have a high powered blender. If that doesn’t do the trick, add a little more orange juice at a time to help get things moving in the blender.
3. Serve! Pour your tropical green smoothie into two glasses and top with fresh fruit, chia seeds, granola, or just drink it as is!
