✅ How to make the Best Green Smoothie

Here are some tips to follow for the best-tasting green smoothie:


✔ Blend the greens first: This avoids chunks and guarantees a smooth consistency.


✔ Use a frozen banana: The banana adds creaminess, and when it’s frozen, your smoothie will be cold as well.


✔ Balance the flavors: If the greens are too sharp, add more banana or a splash of orange juice for sweetness.


✔ Use a high-powered blender: You want a strong blender that can make everything smooth without bits of kale or spinach or anything else like that.


✔ Add some healthy fats: A scoop of nut butter, chia seeds or an avocado can make a smoothie more filling and satisfying.


✔ Drink it fresh: Green smoothies are best when you drink them right away. For storage, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
