Notes
- These are the nutrition facts for 1 serving of this recipe.
- The nutrition information provided is an estimate. It will vary based on the specific ingredients used.
- If you’re out of pineapple, try mango for a similar tropical sweetness and vitamin C boost.
- Swap spinach with kale for more fiber and a slight earthy taste. You can also add some fresh mint leaves
- If you don’t have fresh ginger, use ½ teaspoon ground ginger or turmeric for a similar anti-inflammatory effect.
- If you don’t have coconut water, use plain water, unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk (for a creamier texture), or orange juice(for extra vitamin C and natural sweetness).
- For a naturally icy texture, use frozen pineapple chunks instead of fresh, or add frozen banana for extra creaminess and natural sweetness.
