# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It genuinely tastes sweet and tropical, so you won't feel like you're drinking liquid health food.
  • Five minutes from fridge to glass, which means you can actually make it on a rushed morning instead of just thinking about it.
  • The spinach completely disappears into the flavor, so even skeptics won't taste their greens.
02 -
  • Don't use a wimpy blender for this—a real one makes the difference between creamy and grainy, and spinach leaves can jam up lighter machines.
  • The banana is your sweetness safety net; if yours isn't very ripe, your smoothie will taste sharp and you'll regret skipping the honey.
03 -
  • If your blender struggles, add the liquid first and the spinach second—it helps everything blend evenly instead of getting stuck at the bottom.
  • Make smoothie packs by portioning out the frozen fruit and spinach in small bags ahead of time, so you're literally just adding milk and blending on hectic mornings.
