Strawberry-Orange Green Smoothie

 

Strawberry-Orange Green Smoothie

Prep time: 5 minutes | Servings: 2

 

Ingredients

1 cup fresh spinach (tightly packed)

 

1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries

 

2 medium oranges (peeled and seeded)

 

½ cup Greek yogurt or coconut milk (for that creamy texture)

 

½ cup water or coconut water

 

1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, depending on fruit sweetness)

 

1 cup ice (if using fresh fruit)

 

Instructions

Layer Liquid First: Pour your water (or coconut water) and yogurt into the blender. Adding liquids first helps the blades move freely.

 

Add the Greens: Add the spinach next.

 

Pro-Tip: If you want an extra smooth texture, blend the spinach and liquid together first before adding the fruit.

 

Toss in the Fruit: Add your oranges and strawberries.

 

Blend: Start on a low speed and gradually increase to high. Blend for about 45–60 seconds until no leafy bits are visible.

 

Serve: Pour into mason jars. Garnish with a fresh strawberry on the rim and a slice of orange on the side, just like the photo!
