Ingredients

  • 1 apple Fuji, Gala, Pink Lady, or Honeycrisp
  • 1 stalk celery
  • 1/2 inch ginger root peeled
  • 1 handful spinach fresh
  • 1/2 cup coconut water

Instructions

  • Wash the apple, spinach, celery, and ginger under cold water to remove dirt or debris.
  • Cut the apple into chunks, ensuring the core is removed.
  • Chop the celery stalk into smaller pieces.
  • Peel and slice the ginger root.
  • Add apple chunks, baby spinach, celery pieces, sliced ginger, and coconut water in a blender.
  • Blend in a high-speed blender until you achieve a smooth consistency, and everything is well combined (about 1-2 minutes). If necessary, add more coconut water to reach your desired consistency.
  • Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness or flavor by adding more apple or ginger if desired.
  • Once blended to your liking, pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately.
  • If you prefer your smoothie chilled or thicker, add ice cubes to the blender and the other ingredients before blending. Adjust the quantity of ice cubes based on your preference for temperature and texture.

Notes

  • Refer to the post above for video instructions and other useful information.
  • Nutrition information provided is an estimate and may vary based on the specific ingredients you use.
  • I usually buy Fuji or Gala apples at the grocery store because they're my kids' favorites. These apples are crisp and sweet, and I prefer medium-sized ones because they're just right for my kids to take a bite out of.
  • Some other options to consider are Honeycrisp or Pink Lady apples. All these varieties will provide natural sweetness to the smoothie and give it a refreshing taste, so you don't need to add extra sugar.
  • If you prefer a green apple like Granny Smith apples, you might want to taste the smoothie first to determine if it needs added sugar. If it does, I suggest adding some maple syrup or agave syrup.
