Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen mango chunks (150 g)
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks (165 g)
  • 1 cup packed fresh baby spinach (30 g)
  • 1 cup coconut water (240 ml)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (15 ml)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (12 g) – optional
  • ยฝ teaspoon fresh grated ginger – optional

Instructions

  1. Measure and prep ingredients: gather 1 cup each of frozen mango and pineapple chunks, rinse and loosely pack 1 cup of fresh baby spinach, grate ยฝ teaspoon fresh ginger if using, and juice 1 tablespoon fresh lime.
  2. Add frozen mango and pineapple chunks to the blender first, then add the packed spinach on top, pour in 1 cup coconut water, and add chia seeds and grated ginger if using.
  3. Blend on low speed gradually increasing to high for 1-2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides once or twice until smooth, creamy, and bright green with no large chunks.
  4. Pour in fresh lime juice and blend for an additional 15-30 seconds to brighten flavor.
  5. Check consistency and adjust by adding more coconut water or plain water if too thick, or more frozen fruit chunks if too thin.
  6. Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a pineapple wedge or a sprinkle of chia seeds.

Notes

Use frozen fruit instead of ice to avoid diluting flavor. Blend fruits first, then greens, then liquids for best texture. Fresh lime juice added last brightens flavor and prevents bitterness. Pre-portion frozen fruit and spinach into freezer bags for quick prep. Can substitute kale for spinach or add avocado/Greek yogurt for creaminess.
