Kiwi Smoothie Recipe
Description
This Kiwi Smoothie Recipe combines peeled kiwi fruits, banana, pineapple chunks, fresh spinach leaves, plain yogurt, and water, blended together until smooth. The pineapple and banana provide natural sweetness and creaminess, while spinach adds a mild, leafy element without overpowering the fruit flavors. Yogurt contributes to the smoothie’s thickness and tanginess.
Optional hemp hearts increase the protein and texture, while honey can be added to adjust sweetness to taste. Blending on high speed creates a uniform, drinkable texture. Garnishing with a kiwi slice offers a simple decorative touch.
To achieve the ideal chill and consistency, using at least one frozen ingredient is recommended. If only fresh fruit is available, adding ice and reducing water helps to maintain the smoothie’s balanced thickness. The result is a nutrient-rich, versatile drink suitable for breakfast or a snack.
Ingredients
- 3 kiwi peeled
- 1 medium banana
- 1 cup pineapple
- 1 cup spinach
- ½ cup PLAIN yogurt
- ½ cup water
- 1 tablespoon hemp hearts optional
- 1 tablespoon honey optional
Instructions
- Add the kiwi, banana pineapple, spinach, yogurt, hemp hearts, and water to your blender.
- Blend on high speed until smooth. Taste the smoothie and if you'd like it sweeter, add the honey.
- Pour your kiwi smoothie into glasses and garnish with a kiwi slice.
Notes
- Use at least one frozen ingredient to achieve a chilled smoothie consistency.
- If all ingredients are fresh, add a handful of ice cubes and omit water to avoid a thin texture.
- When multiple frozen ingredients are used, add water as needed to reach desired thickness.
