Purple Power Detox Smoothie

The Purple Power Detox Smoothie blends frozen blueberries, beet, banana, kale, and coconut milk with orange juice to create a thick, nutrient-rich smoothie with a vivid purple color. Optional ingredients like green apple, spinach, flax or chia seeds, and ice allow customization. The recipe relies on blending raw produce for a fresh, earthy, fruity flavor and is designed as a refreshing, fiber-rich drink that can support a detox regimen.

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Get Blending!
  2. Cook up some beets for a salad or side dish and then set a few slices aside for this smoothie!
  3. To make this bad boy, toss everything in the blender and let it do the work for you.
  4. Adjust the liquids and even add ice if needed, it'll just depend on your ratio of frozen ingredients to fresh.
  5. I always start with the recipe above and then just tweak as needed!
  6. While I don't typically sweeten my smoothies, feel free to sweeten with extra fruit, juice, or agave syrup if desired. Anything goes; empty that crisper and enjoy!
