Steps
1
Preparing the Smoothie
Ingredients
1 cup (packed) spinach*
1 cup (packed) kale*
2 celery stalks*
1 1/2 cups frozen mango pieces
2-inch piece fresh turmeric
1-inch piece fresh ginger
1 + cups fresh orange juice
cayenne, to taste
*Note: For a nice cold smoothie, freeze the spinach, kale and celery first.
To make the smoothie, place everything into a high speed blender and blend until smooth. For the cayenne pepper, start with a pinch or two adding more as needed or desired.
If the smoothie is a bit too thick, add a bit more orange juice and blend again. Also, depending on the sweetness of the mangoes, a date can be added for a bit of extra sweetness. Essentially, feel free to play around with the amounts of ingredients added, to see what suits you best.
Serve immediately.
