Ingredients
Scale
1 medium orange, peeled
½ grapefruit, peeled
½ lemon, peeled
1 inch fresh ginger, peeled
½ teaspoon turmeric powder
Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)
1 tablespoon flaxseeds
1 cup spinach
½ cup water or coconut water (adjust to desired consistency)
Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
Peel the orange, grapefruit, and lemon. Removing the peel is important to avoid any bitterness in your smoothie.
Add the peeled fruits, ginger, turmeric powder, cayenne pepper (if using), flaxseeds, spinach, and water or coconut water to a blender.
Blend all the ingredients until you achieve a smooth consistency. If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more water or coconut water until it reaches your desired consistency.
If you prefer a colder smoothie, add a handful of ice cubes and blend again until smooth.
Give the smoothie a taste and adjust the ingredients as needed. If you want it sweeter, add a little honey or maple syrup. If you want more spice, add a pinch more cayenne pepper.
Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately!
