1/2 ripe avocado

1/4 cup raw almonds
-
1 cup milk of choice (dairy, oat, or almond)

Tuesday: Tropical Glow

1 cup fresh pineapple chunks

1 medium red apple, cored and sliced
-
2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
-
1/2 cup water or orange juice (to help blending)

Wednesday: The Refresher
-
Ingredients:

Juice of 1/2 lemon

1/2 cup cold water

Optional: A few mint leaves for extra zest.

Saturday: The Green Machine
-
Ingredients:
-
1 green apple, cored
-
1/2 cucumber, sliced
-
1 large handful of fresh baby spinach
-
1/2 cup water or coconut water
-
-
Instructions: Layer the spinach at the bottom near the blades, then add the cucumber and apple. Blend until there are no leafy “bits” left.
Pro-Tips for Success:
-
The Liquid Base: Start with 1/2 cup of liquid. If it’s too thick, add more a tablespoon at a time.
-
Temperature: For the best experience, use at least one frozen fruit element (like the banana or berries) to keep the drink cold and thick without diluting it with ice.
-
Prep: You can “meal prep” these by putting the dry/solid ingredients into freezer bags so you just have to dump them in and add liquid in the morning!
