Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cucumber , peeled (to avoid bitterness)
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup mixed berries (frozen)
- 1 to 2 teaspoons spirulina powder (you can use up to 1 tablespoon)
- 1 Medjool date , pitted
- 1 large handful baby spinach
Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients in a blender and blend until very smooth. Serve chilled right away.
- Note: If you don't have a powerful blender, I recommend blending the water, spinach, cucumber, and date together first. Once they are broken down, add in the frozen fruit and spirulina and blend again.
