difference between a juice and a smoothie.)
If you’re still wondering why you should drink green juices & smoothies, read more about their health benefits below.
Ingredients
Pineapple, 1/4
Spinach, a big big handful
Lemon, 1/2
Cucumber, 1/2
Small handful of mint
Ginger, 1 cm
Ice cubes, 4
Procedure
Peel the ginger and the lemon (try to keep as much of the white pith as you can, it contains most of the good stuff); brush the cucumber (same thing, all the good stuff is under the skin); wash the spinach and the mint. Dice the cucumber and the pineapple.
Chuck everything in your blender with the ice and add a tiny tiny bit of water if necessary; blend until smooth.
I would recommend having it for breakfast on an empty stomach so as to optimise the absorption of the nutrients.
Enjoy!
