Ingredients
Scale
1 medium beetroot, peeled and chopped
1 inch fresh ginger, peeled and grated
1/2 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
1/2 banana
1/2 cup spinach (optional, but recommended!)
1/2 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
Ice cubes (as needed)
Instructions
Prep the Ingredients: Wash and chop the beetroot, peel and grate the ginger, and gather all your other ingredients.
Blend It All: Place the beetroot, ginger, berries, banana, spinach (if using), almond milk, chia seeds, and sweetener (if using) into a high-speed blender.
Add Ice: Add a handful of ice cubes to the blender. This will give your smoothie a nice, thick consistency.
Blend Until Smooth: Blend everything together until you achieve a smooth and creamy texture. If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more almond milk. If it’s too thin, add a few more ice cubes or frozen berries.
Taste and Adjust: Give the smoothie a taste and adjust the sweetness or consistency as needed. Add a little more honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter taste, or add more ice for a thicker smoothie.
Pour and Enjoy: Pour your beetroot and ginger smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately!
